The origins of the Collegiate Abbey of Göppingen date back to its foundation in 1448. Throughout its history, the abbey was associated with the Jesuit order, which shaped its development. After nearly two centuries of existence, the monastery was dissolved and secularized in 1644, bringing an end to its original function.
