St. Stephan's Cathedral

The cathedral to St. Stephan is not simply a sacral masterpiece or a church. The St. Stephans Cathedral, often affectionately called Steffl by the Viennese, is impressing evidence of earlier architecture and not to be excluded from the Viennese city centre. Its unmistakable silhouette is a landmark of Vienna.

A visit to the St. Stephans Cathedral is a genuine highlight of your Vienna vacation. Several masses are celebrated daily and many festive services are held. These are announced by the "Pummerin" - the prominent cathedral bells -. During a walk around the St. Stephan’s Cathedral you can see valuable rarities from many epochs. One can also climb up the St. Stephan’s Cathedral by taking the stairs (from the south tower, tower room) or take the lift to the Pummerin (north tower) or go down to the catacombs.
