Jesuit College of Ingolstadt

The Jesuit College of Ingolstadt was a Jesuit school in Ingolstadt, in the Duchy and Electorate of Bavaria, founded in 1556, that operated until the suppression of the Jesuit Order in 1773. The college was the headquarters of the Jesuits in Germany, and became a center of the Counter-Reformation. Many of its members taught at the University of Ingolstadt.
The University of Ingolstadt was founded in 1472 by Louis IX, Duke of Bavaria . William IV, Duke of Bavaria, arranged with Ignatius of Loyola for three Jesuits to lecture at the University in 1549. They were Alfonso Salmerón of Spain, Claude Le Jay of Savoy and Peter Canisius of the Netherlands. Canisius was elected first dean and then rector of the theological faculty, and from 1551–52 was vice-chancellor. However, by February 1552 the three Jesuits had moved on to new assignments.
