Collège jésuite de Passau, Religious convent in Passau, Germany

The Jesuit College displays a castle-like structure with a central tower section, three main floors, and marble-clad staircases on the western side.

Founded in 1611 by Prince-Bishop Archduke Leopold of Austria, the building was constructed in 1613 by Jesuit Father Johannes Isfording from Molsheim.

The former refectory contains notable manuscripts, including the Vornbach Bible from 1421, representing centuries of religious scholarship.

The former Jesuit College now functions as the Leopoldinum Gymnasium, with a section belonging to the University of Passau.

The building features a rare triple-stepped frame portal design and includes an original tower with a bell floor, clock, and observatory.
