Peterskirche - Map, Pictures and Virtual Tours

Peterskirche

• The church was finished in 1733 with a design inspired by the St. Peter's Basilica of the Vatican in Rome and it was the first domed structure in baroque Vienna. Due to the confinement of available space, it was built in a very compact form, with its oval interior housing an astonishing amount of space and rectangular attachments. The church makes an overwhelming impression on the visitor with its surprisingly rich interior filled with golden stucco.
