Am Schöpfwerk Church

The building consists of cubic elements arranged symmetrically in a stepped pyramid form with a seven-story bell tower at the entrance vestibule.

Built between 1979 and 1981 according to architect Viktor Hufnagl's design, the church originally served as a Roman Catholic parish dedicated to Saint Francis.

In 2022, the church transferred from Roman Catholic to Serbian Orthodox use due to demographic changes, serving an increased Orthodox population in the area.

The structure spans two levels, with community facilities and parish office on the lower floor and the main worship space above, accommodating 220 seats.

The interior features dark blue domes in the ceiling that combine with lighting to create a starry sky effect, with four upper domes representing the Canticle.
