St. Stephen's Cathedral
St. Stephen's Cathedral is the central landmark of Vienna and an important example of Gothic architecture. Construction began in 1137 and continued over centuries, incorporating various stylistic elements. A highlight is the impressive south tower, which at 136 meters is the highest point in the city and offers a viewing platform. Here you have the opportunity to see the entire city.
The interior of the cathedral houses remarkable works of art, including the high altar and the magnificent baptismal font. The large number of chapels dedicated to the history of Vienna and its saints are particularly impressive. During your visit, you can also explore the cathedral's treasury, where valuable liturgical objects and religious relics from different eras are on display.
An impressive underground catacomb allows you to learn more about the history and early burials in Vienna. A visit to St. Stephen's Cathedral is not only a journey into the architecture, but also into the city's eventful history.
