Christ Church, Gothic Revival Anglican church in Landstraße, Vienna, Austria.
Christ Church is an Anglican worship building constructed in the Gothic Revival style with pointed arches and ornate stone tracery adorning its windows. Both the exterior facade and interior spaces display the soaring vertical lines typical of this architectural movement.
The building was completed in 1898 after the British community secured permission to construct an Anglican church under embassy protection. This milestone marked the establishment of a permanent house of worship for English speakers in Vienna.
The church serves as a gathering place for Vienna's English-speaking Anglican community, with services held regularly in English. It remains central to their worship and social life in the city.
The church is located on Jaurèsgasse 17-19 in central Vienna, making it accessible by foot from nearby public transport. Plan your visit around the Sunday and Wednesday service times when the building is most active.
The east window honors British troops who served in Austria and was installed after the original Victorian window suffered damage during World War II. This replacement serves as a quiet memorial to those historical events.
