Das Kloster und die Kirche wurden zwischen den Jahren 1735 und 1740 wieder aufgebaut, aber die Organisation stammt aus dem Jahr 1120.

Die Organisation ist immer noch sehr aktiv. Jedes Jahr gibt es einen vollständigen Veranstaltungskalender für Kunst, Musik, Literatur und andere kulturelle Veranstaltungen. Das Herzstück des Klosters sind die zentralen Gärten und die barocke Kirche mit Altarbildern von Spiegler und der größten Orgel der Schweiz.
