The monastery was built in 1736 by the Carmelite order on the former site of a mosque that was destroyed in 1686. The order received the real estate in 1693 and completed the new monastery and church by 1736, but it was consecrated only in 1763. Two decades later, Emperor Joseph II disbanded the order and converted the property into a theater. Since 2019 seat of the offices of the Prime Minister of Hungary.
