Very cute church that seems like it was tucked in the middle of all the building. The church is very pretty and ornate from the inside. You can go in anytime but we took a last minute opportunity to buy a concert ticket for the evening to enjoy the acoustic inside. We didn’t regret it at all. The concert was excellent for children and adults and the beauty of the church made it magical. I highly recommend visiting.

Very imposing and nice church to visit. Entry is fee though you are encouraged to make a donation. They do have people playing the church organ from time to time. During those times, the sanctuary area might be closed until after the performance. The interior of the church looks very beautiful. Worth a visit.

St. Peter’s Church is one of those places that leaves you speechless the moment you step inside. Tucked away just off the bustling Graben, it might be easy to miss if you’re not looking for it—but it’s absolutely worth seeking out. The baroque architecture is stunning. Every inch of the interior is intricately detailed—gilded sculptures, vivid frescoes, and an altar that practically glows in the natural light filtering through the dome. It’s not a large church, but the sheer amount of craftsmanship packed into the space is astonishing. Even during busy hours, the atmosphere remains peaceful and reverent. If you’re lucky, you might catch an organ recital or a classical concert in the evening—an experience that feels nothing short of transcendent in such a beautiful setting. Unlike some other major churches, St. Peter’s is free to enter, though donations are welcome and deserved. It’s an ideal spot to take a quiet break from sightseeing, light a candle, or simply soak in the incredible artistry and serenity. Whether you’re religious or not, this church is a must-see in Vienna. It’s a masterpiece of design and a perfect reminder of the city’s rich cultural and spiritual history.

Absolutely beautiful and a must see. Ho inside to see the church. There are lots of vendors and street performers in the evening.

St. Peter’s Church is absolutely stunning with beautiful architecture and incredible artwork that make it worth a visit on its own. We attended a concert here and, while the seats weren’t the most comfortable, the musicians were outstanding. Their performance truly transported us through time and space, perfectly matched to the historic and atmospheric setting. A memorable experience in a breathtaking venue.

Small but surprisingly beautiful church. First I thought it would be just another little church. Still decided to visit purely for spiritual purposes but after stepping in, I was speechless. There was the prayer going on and the whole experience with the prayer, organ music, singing, and interior was simply amazing.

The church is located in the historical center of Vienna, near Graben Street, and is one of the oldest Christian shrines in the city. What
