St. Leopoldskirche

Kirche am Leopoldsberg / Leopoldikapelln

Dedicated to the patron saint of Vienna, this small church was established in 1679, and its current appearance dates to the first part of the 18th century. The building is on top of 425-m-high Leopoldsberg, with lovely views of Vienna and the surrounding area. Following restoration work of the nearby medieval fortress, the church re-opened to the public in 2018.

Grinzing Parish Church
Grinzinger Pfarrkirche
Built in the 15th century, the church was burned in 1529 and 1683, during the first and second Turkish sieges of Vienna, and severely damaged during World War II. However one treasure did survive: the organ, on which both Beethoven and Schubert used to perform. The organ was modified several times since then and had fallen into severe disrepair, but in 1997 it was completely restored by a master organ builder and is now again played regularly.
