Neuottakringer Kirche, Parish church in Ottakring, Austria.

The Neuottakringer Kirche features two towers reaching 68 meters in height, making it one of the largest churches in Vienna.

Emperor Franz Josef I laid the foundation stone on October 2, 1894, and attended the consecration ceremony performed by Bishop Johann Baptist Schneider in 1898.

The church interior contains oak-carved altar pieces by Franz Leimer and an altar tabernacle decorated with six ivory panels painted by Felix Jennewein and Ferdinand Andri.

The church stands at Familienplatz 14, at the intersection of Wattgasse, Degengasse, Rückertgasse, and Arnethgasse in the 16th district of Vienna.

The funding for the church came from Franziska Brüssel's estate and the Ottakring Church Building Association under Crown Prince Rudolf's protection.
