Diese Kirche bildet einen einzigartigen mittelalterlichen Komplex in Straßburg. Der romanische Westglockenturm, das älteste Element der Kirche, geht dem Bau des Chores um 1290 und dem um das Jahr 1320 fertiggestellten Kirchenschiff voraus. Das gotische Gewölbe wurde im 14. Jahrhundert erbaut. Es wird von einer Silbermann-Orgel (1780) überragt. Der Kreuzgang ist im Wesentlichen im romanischen Stil gehalten. Er beherbergt etwa 80 Grabsteine, die hauptsächlich aus dem 14. bis 16. Jahrhundert stammen. Die Kirche wurde 1524 durch die Predigt von Wolfgang Capiton protestantisch. Sie wurde zwischen 1897 und 1901 vom deutschen Architekten Carl Schäfer restauriert, wie das neugotische Portal zeigt. Zwischen 1682 und 1893 wurde der Chor den Katholiken zugeteilt.
This church offers a unique example of mediaeval architecture. The choir was completed in 1290, after the Romanesque western bell tower, the oldest part of the church, while the nave was built in 1320. The church contains a 14th-century Gothic rood-screen, upon which was built a Silbermann organ (1780). The cloister is primarily Romanesque and contains some 80 tombstones, mainly from the 14th and 16th centuries. The church became Protestant in 1524 after Wolfgang Capito preached the Reformation there. It was restored between 1897 and 1901 by German architect Carl Schäfer, one of whose additions was the neo-Gothic portico. During the period 1682 to 1893, the choir was given over to Catholic worship.
