Jesuit Church, Baroque church in Innere Stadt, Austria
The Jesuit Church displays intricate golden decorations throughout its interior, featuring flesh-toned and ochre color schemes across walls and ceilings.
The construction of the church began in 1623 and was completed in 1631, with Italian architect Andrea Pozzo later enhancing its design in 1703.
The church presents paintings and architectural elements dedicated to the assumption of the Virgin Mary, reflecting themes of salvation and divine victory.
Located near the Old University of Vienna, the church welcomes visitors daily from 8:00 AM to 9:00 PM with informative leaflets about its artistic features.
The church contains the burial crypt of Andrea Pozzo, the renowned architect who created its elaborate interior designs and optical illusion dome.
