Salesianerinnenkirche, Vienna, Baroque church and monastery in Landstraße district, Vienna, Austria.
The Salesianerinnenkirche features an elongated oval design with a prominent dome and extends across eight interior courtyards within the monastery complex.
Empress Amalia Wilhelmine founded this religious complex in 1717 on land that became available following the Second Turkish Siege of Vienna in 1683.
The church ceiling displays oil paintings by Italian artist Antonio Pellegrini, depicting the Assumption of Mary through an uncommon painting technique.
The monastery grounds connect directly to the Botanical Garden of the University of Vienna and provide access to the Belvedere Gardens through southern courtyards.
The entrance courtyard contains decorative wrought-iron gates from 1730 with a cartouche displaying Empress Amalia Wilhelmine's coat of arms.
