Villach Friary, Franciscan monastery in Villach, Austria.
The stone structure of Villach Friary extends 48.5 meters in length and 20 meters in width, featuring a 64-meter-high tower in neo-Gothic architecture.
The Tyrolean Franciscan Province took charge of St. Nikolai Parish in 1886 due to a shortage of priests, establishing their presence in the former Capuchin monastery.
The monastery contains artistic decorations and frescoes created by Tyrolean artists, representing religious themes through detailed craftsmanship and technical execution.
The monastery offers regular religious services, including Sunday masses and special holiday celebrations, with scheduled events throughout the religious calendar.
The monastery underwent complete reconstruction in 1888 against municipal opposition, with Salzburg priest Stephan Dionys Cserveny von Zabor providing substantial financial support.
