Complesso conventuale dei Francescani, documenti a Bolzano dal 1237, sorto su un terreno del Vescovo di Bressanone attorno all’antica cappella de S. Ingenuino.
Dopo l’incendio del 1291, la chiesa viene ricostruita in forme gotiche: il coro e il campanile sono del XIV sec., il soffitto a volte risale alla metà del XV sec.
All’interno altare a portelle di H. Klocker (1500).
Nel chiostro trecentesco affreschi gotici e tele del XVIII secolo. Nella cappella de S. Erardo ciclo di affreschi protogotici (XIV sec.).

Die seit 1237 belegte Klosteranlage der Franziskaner entstand auf Brixner Bistumsgrund im Bereich der hochmittelalterlichen St. Ingenuins-Kapelle.
Die Kirche wurde nach dem Brand von 1291 in gotischem Stil wiederaufgebaut: Chor und Turm stammen aus dem 14 Jh., das Gewölbe aus der Mitte des 15. Jh. Im Inneren der Kirche Flügelaltar von H. Klocker (1500).
Der Kreuzgang aus dem 14. Jh. ist mit gotischen Fresken und Gemälden des 18. Jh. ausgeschmückt. In der Erhardskapelle frühgotische Wandmalereien (14. Jh.).
