Stupa am Wagram

The Peace Stupa stands 32.5 meters tall on the Wagram terrain step, featuring a Buddha statue and gardens designed by landscape architects Gunter Hauser and Peter Kramer.

Construction of the Buddhist shrine began on March 21, 2016, after previous projects in Gföhl and Schwarzenbach could not be realized, with final inauguration in June 2023.

The stupa represents a spiritual center where people from different religious backgrounds come together, as demonstrated by meetings between Buddhist and Catholic religious leaders.

The privately funded structure combines meditation spaces and gardens, requiring no additional taxpayer costs while maintaining minimal impact on local traffic patterns.

The architectural design by Matthias Rainer incorporates traditional Buddhist elements with modern construction techniques, reaching 18.75 meters to the dome plus additional spire height.
