Stadtpfarrkirche, Parish church in Wels, Austria

The Stadtpfarrkirche features three naves, a Baroque west portal, and a tower topped with an onion dome from the 18th century.

First documented in 888, the church underwent transformation from a chapel to a Romanesque basilica in the 13th century and later Gothic modifications.

The church contains marble sarcophagi of the Polheim noble family, relocated here after the dissolution of the Minorite monastery in 1785.

Located at Pfarrgasse 27 in Wels, the church provides wheelchair accessibility and serves as the main Roman Catholic church of the city.

The baptistery in the western section of the northern aisle includes a Lourdes grotto with a representation of Mary.
