Zwischen dem Benediktinerkloster Irsee und dem Kloster Kaufbeuren bestanden schon früh enge Kontakte; insbesondere zum Irseer Prior Pater Meinrad Spieß. Dieser war  einer der bedeutendsten Kirchenkomponisten Süddeutschlands zu jener Zeit.

In der Irseer Klosterkirche befindet sich neben einer Reliquie der Heiligen als Zeichen der langjährigen Verbindung der beiden Klöster auch eine Plastik des Christus mit der Schulterwunde im Kerker. Eine originelle Besonderheit  ist die Schiffskanzel in Form eines Schiffsbuges.

Nach der Säkularisierung diente das Kloster einer Heilanstalt des Bezirks Schwaben; heute beherbergt es die Schwabenakademie mit Tagungshotel.
