Heiligengeistkirche Klagenfurt, Baroque church in Klagenfurt, Austria.

The Heiligengeistkirche features a single-nave hall with four bays and a barrel vault supported by pilasters adorned with regional coats of arms.

Initially documented in 1355, the church served as Austria's largest Protestant house of worship in 1581 before transferring to Jesuit control in 1600.

The ceiling displays two large paintings from 1886 by Josef and August Veiter, depicting the Birth of Christ and the Ascension.

The church entrance presents accessibility limitations for wheelchair users, requiring advance planning for visitors with mobility requirements.

The prayer benches from 1740 exhibit intricate inlay decorations, representing craftsmanship from the middle of the 18th century.
