Cathedral of the Assumption of Mary and St. Rupert, Wiener Neustadt, Romanesque cathedral in Wiener Neustadt, Austria.
The Cathedral of the Assumption of Mary and St. Rupert displays massive stone walls, twin towers, and semicircular arches characteristic of medieval construction methods.
Construction of the cathedral began in 1207, and it served as the seat of the Diocese of Wiener Neustadt from 1468 until the diocese dissolution in 1785.
