In [[1924]], the church administration decided to build a new church in [[Hadern]] and commissioned Professor [[Franz Rank]] planning a "just-equipped and spacious" church. A year later, the design of the church was finished. [[Hadern]] then had around 3,000 inhabitants. The [[foundation stone]] was laid on 5 July in [[1925]] and topping was celebrated on 3 November.

Beginning August [[1926]], Pastor [[Michael Batzer]] invited all involved in construction for a [[beer]] in the evening. Then he announced that he was broke. He hired a brass band and started singing... Some plans for the [[interior]] had to be postponed. Only the [[altar]] picture could be achieved, out of the original planned decorative [[altar]].

The church was consecrated by Cardinal [[Michael von Faulhaber]] on 29 August in [[1926]] - only 15 months after the being constructed. The [[Germans|German]] [[Jesuit]] [[Petrus Canisius|Peter Canisius]] was canonized only one year earlier, on Ascension Day (May 21) of the Holy Year [[1925]] in Rome by [[Pope Pius XI]]. In the forced annexation of [[Hadern]] to [[Munich]] in [[1938]] the municipality had 6,900 inhabitants. Pastor [[Michael Batzer]] died at the age of 55 in [[1937]].

During [[World War II]] the church was hit by incendiary [[bombs]]. These fires could be extinguished quickly. Individual traces of fire can still be seen on the banks. '''St. Canisius''' was renovated in [[1947]]. The lower church, which was planned originally as a weekday [[chapel]] was now used as a [[library]], a group room for youth and adults, for the [[church choir]] and occasional lectures.

By [[1990]] the tower was renewed. This had been unnoticed easily damaged by air raids during [[World War II]], so over decades [[rot]] and [[water]] penetrated the oak subconstruction. The [[spire]] was replaced and a new [[Weather vane|weather-cock]], a golden [[cross]] and a new covering were installed. The entire roof of the Church of '''St. Canisius''' was renovated in [[2009]].
