Hasenleiten Parish Church

Hasenleiten Parish Church, Roman Catholic church in Simmering, Vienna, Austria

Hasenleiten Parish Church, also called Filialkirche Zum Göttlichen Kinderfreund, is a Roman Catholic church on the southern edge of Hasenleiten in Vienna's 11th district, Simmering. Architect Ladislaus Hruska designed and built it between 1953 and 1959; Cardinal Franz König consecrated it on 20 December 1959. Inside, a Stations of the Cross by the painter Koruka is formed as a wire sculpture, and the 1976 organ with 15 stops comes from Walcker-Mayer.

The site was originally part of a military hospital during World War I, with a small wooden chapel built there in 1915. After difficult postwar years, Jesuits restored and revived the place in 1926, and by 1944 Hasenleiten became an independent parish with its own dedicated church building.

The church is dedicated to John Maria Vianney, the parish priest of Ars, and was the first and only Austrian church consecrated to him, on 20 December 1959 by Cardinal Franz König. Since 2018 it has been a filial church of the Parish of the Divine Love and the church of the Hasenleiten subparish.

The church stands at the southern edge of Hasenleiten in Simmering, where the plot for the new building was bought while Konrad Thurnher was pastor. It is a branch church of the Parish of the Divine Love and the church of the Hasenleiten sub-community, so services follow that parish's arrangements. The 1976 Walcker-Mayer organ has 15 stops.

The present church is the only one in Austria dedicated to John Maria Vianney, the Curé d'Ars; Cardinal Franz König consecrated it on 20 December 1959. Inside, look for the Stations of the Cross made by painter Koruka as a wire sculpture, and the 1976 organ with 15 stops built by Walcker-Mayer.
