Stadtpfarrkirche Stockerau, Parish church in Stockerau, Austria.
The Stadtpfarrkirche Stockerau is a baroque parish church with a prominent tower that rises above the town. The main nave and choir follow the typical architectural design of the baroque period.
The current church was built between 1777 and 1778, while its tower was constructed between 1722 and 1725 on an earlier structure. This sequence shows how the building expanded over several decades.
The church's interior features an altar painting depicting Saint Stephen's suffering, created by Johann Meidinger. The space also contains other artworks that contribute to the baroque character of the worship area.
The church is located centrally and is easily accessible from the town center. Visitors with mobility needs can find wheelchair access available, and the interior can be viewed during regular opening times.
The site marks where Saint Coloman was executed in 1012, which later attracted pilgrims to the location. This early religious significance continues to shape the spiritual character of the place.
