churches: Kirche «am Hof»
  • Tip Rating:
  • The original structure of the church, call also "zu den neun Choren der Engel" (the nine angelic choruses) is locked between two buildings. It is tied to the particular history of the construction, erected like church of a carmelitan convent (1386-1403) risen on the site of the former residence of the Babenberg. The ghotic factory to three navate, fruit of the originally transformation of Romanesque imperial chapel, has made then from central nucleus, after it was damaged from a fire in 1607, for puts into effect it into the nowday complex, with forehead of roman baroque style, commissioned from the Jesuits (1622).

    churches: Orthodox church
  • Tip Rating:
  • This one seems to me an Orthodox church, it was not at the old city region so I assume it is not that old, but still, it looks beautiful

    With the back against the ring, the old Dominican chrch does not immediately jump into your sight. As the exterior also is rather modest and grey, one could easily walk by without noticing it. The facade is somewhat richer in decorations and style and is inviting you in. Not doing so would be a big mistake, as the most important beauty (as always) lies on the inside of the church. In a rather dark interior, rich glow of gold and silver, as well as colurful paintings, are very pretty. Besides that, such a quiet place is also always an energyboost to the next intensive hours of a city walk.

  • Tip Rating:
  • Get inside the Votivkirche (near by the Vienna University). It is one of the most beautiful churches in Vienna. And walk in the park in front of it.

    churches: Modern Vienna - New Church in Donaucity
    "Christ, Hope of the World" - a new Church for the new Vienna of international agencies and multinational corporations. Vienna is more than a museum city, it is also a place subject to the forces of globalization, for better and for worse. It has some plenty of modern architecture and design, some of it mediocre, some of it breathtaking. I like this new church in Donaucity, not far from the UNO center. It was designed by contemporary Viennese architect Heinz Tesar, and is designated "Christ, Hope of the World." Isn't it interesting how the only traditionally Christian iconography on the church is the cross affixed to its side? I admire this design for its boldness; and also for the way it completely adheres to a certain idea of the "here and now" value of religion. It takes a certain "gumption" to carry out such an uncompromisingly abstract design only a few miles from the piles of the Ringstrasse.

    churches: In the Mental Hospital - Kirk am Steinhof
    A fantastic church situated in the groudns of the mental hospital. Reached by bus from the city centre. Bult in 1907 and Otto Wagner`s last commission. A bit of a spooky location but well worth the trek. Open very limited hours, I think only Saturday afternoons
