Autobahnkirche Haid, Modern parish church near West Autobahn A1 in Ansfelden, Austria

The church building features a 42-meter tower and contains concrete glass windows on both the north and south walls of the structure.

Inaugurated in August 1964, Autobahnkirche Haid was established as the first motorway church in Austria, following a design selected through a Linz municipality competition.

The church, dedicated to Saint Paul and the Assumption of Mary, belongs to the Traun deanery of the Diocese of Linz in Upper Austria.

The structure provides religious services to both local residents and travelers along the highway, with a regular congregation of 350 people attending services.

Between 1947 and 1961, religious services were conducted in a former dining hall of the Haid displaced persons camp before the current church existed.
