Kreuzherrengasse 1, 1040 Wien, Austria
Wonderful baroque church that is stunning both outside and in. The addition of two huge floating reflective spheres in the nave is very questionable. So too is the lift, also in the church itself, which does however allow visitors right to the top of the dome. The resulting view is spectacular.
Best place of Vienna trip. We opted not to go inside. In the evening, with a person playing sitar in the background, the view with small pond before it was most memorable moment. The carving of bible on the twin towers below is marvellous.
I love this church! It's decorated columns are just impressive, as much as its interiors. Usually on weekends during the good season there are nice events, and the Xmas markets are the best in Vienna!
Fascinating and beautiful church in a fabulous platz setting. The altar is stunning and the side vestibules are beautiful. The church also has a lift to the top which is definitely worth taking for the magnificent views. Be prepared to wait for that lift, it's quite a slow process.....but be patient, it's well worth it.
My favorite place in Vienna. We love coming here with my husband with a bottle of wine and chatting all night. There is also a drink stall where you can get beer, coffee etc. They also have a loo! Visit the museum in it but be sure to spend time by the pond in the evening.
