Kagraner Pfarrkirche

Kagraner Pfarrkirche is a parish church featuring a Gothic choir and a bell tower with a pointed spire. The interior was enlarged in the past and now includes a gallery that was added during renovation work.

The building was originally dedicated to Saint Wendelin and gained parish rights following a major flood. This established its importance as one of Vienna's oldest surviving parish churches beyond the Danube.

The church serves as a gathering place for the local parish community to celebrate Mass and religious occasions. It plays a central role in the neighborhood's spiritual life and brings people together for worship and community events.

The church is located near Kagraner Platz and is easily accessible by metro. Visiting is possible at any time, though attending during regular service hours offers a fuller experience.

The structure survived an ice jam in the Danube in 1830 that damaged the surrounding area with floods and debris. This natural disaster left marks on the building and remains part of the neighborhood's memory of nature's power.
