St. Andreas, Parish church in Penzing, Vienna, Austria.

St. Andreas is a freestanding neo-Gothic brick church at Linzer Straße 424 in Hütteldorf, built by architect Richard Jordan in 1881/82. A facade tower stands to the south, the choir to the north, with a nave and transept between. The high altar holds figures of Saints Francis, Elizabeth of Thuringia, Leopold III and Severin carved by Rochus Haas.

The parish of Hütteldorf was founded in 1356 by Wernhard Schenk von Ried, the local landowner. By the 19th century the old Gothic church was so dilapidated that its tower had to be demolished in 1864. Pastor Emanuel Paletz, who took over the parish in 1873, planned the new building, which was erected in 1881/82 on the site of the former parish farm and consecrated on 9 November 1882. The old church was demolished in 1887.

The church serves as a gathering spot for the local community, where parishioners come together for religious occasions and neighborhood events. Daily services and celebrations shape the rhythm of life in the Penzing district.

The church is accessible to visitors during worship services and special community events held at the parish. Those interested in viewing the architecture should check ahead about visiting times and any guided tour opportunities.

The high altar's arcade holds figures of Saints Francis, Elizabeth of Thuringia, Leopold III and Severin of Noricum, carved by Rochus Haas, who also made the Stations of the Cross. Older than the 1881/82 building is a crucifix probably from the 16th century. A plaque on the east wall honours Michael Denis, with a relief bust by Vincenz Pilz.
