Landmarks can sometimes be hard to in Vienna. Everywhere you look, you'll witness incredible architecture . However, this majestic roman-gothic masterpiece is absolutely unmistakable. A must visit.

Katerina Kuv

Scenic views , architecture , amazing view of the city , breathtaking Wien from north tower. You can use an elevator or steps

The Telegraph

Be among the first of the day to enter Vienna’s landmark gothic cathedral . Those with a head for heights should climb the 343 steps for fabulous views from the top of the south tower (€3.50/£2.80).

Gabi Bulumac

The Symbol of Vienna ......you simply cannot visit Vienna without seeing St. Stephen's Cathedral ,gothic atmosphere and the Baroque High Altar is absolutely stunning !

Bogdan D.

Beautiful restored medieval romanesque cathedral with many ghotic elements - a masterpiece in the heart of Vienna ; every few days, great concerts are being held here; many extra things to visit here;

Kalle R

The must visit place when in Vienna. Beautiful and ugly at the same time. Lots of touristy places around it, but within short walk you can find very nice places to eat and drink.

Cojocariu Mihai

Nice view over the city , better than the wheel, in my opinion, as this is in the touristic downtown area. Has an interesting interior and history/design also. A must visit overall

Dhyani Marga

Free admissionon the side area, if you want to see the praying area you need to buy ticket (inside on the left there’s a booth ) and there’s special time that will be written on the board.

Murat

Centrally located in heart of OldTown, in middle of PedestranianStreet. Impressive, beautiful, one of the must-visit spots. Roof has special eagle image. Possible catch a horse-carriage just in front.

muttibey

I mean it is massive and amazing. The entrance is free but some parts such as underground and tower is subject to fee but it is definitely worth seeing.

Tasos Lazaridis

Every route leads here. Free wifi . You cant miss the cathedral while visiting Wien. Free entrance but you need 5,5 euros to take the lift to the roof

FRITZ fritztheyodeler

Vienna's most famous landmark ... you can actually climb inside the spire, not just take the lift to the big bell, did you know that?

Fluying ✅

The main nave is open for tourists Mon-Sat 9:00-11:30 & 13:00-16:30, Sun 13:00-16:30. Base ticket is recommended.

Amaury J

Breathtaking cathedral in the center of Vienna. Free entrance. Definitely worth a visit.

Katerina Katerina

The view is absolutely great! But the main disadvantage is huge amount of dark uncomfortable stairs. So if you are not good at sport , just go strait to the opposite Northen tower with the elevator )))

Krisztián Vértes

Beautiful cathedral with free entry, a popular destination down town so prepare for crowds every time of the day though!

thpsycho

Breath taking view from the top and you get to see the details of the building while on the way to the top

Geo Diam

One of the must of vienna sights!! the view from the top is stunning !! you can try the elevator instead of the 343 steps .

Julia Kryvomaz

Huge monumental building. Must see if in Vienna. Better to go up the tower to get a view on the city center

Lobster

The Church is beautiful from the outside, inside it is chock full of pushy tourists with not a lot to see. Compared to other churches in Europe it's not so worthwhile to venture inside

Judie Stanford

Pay for the treasury tour and you'll get a fab higher level view of the cathedral interior without a crowd.

Fluying ✅

This tryptic altar is open during xmas season and up to cuaresma.

Matthew Caldecutt

This is an active church so time your visit accordingly or you'll be in the back until after mass.

Stacy Bo Bacy

Go up the north tower for €6. Short wait for the elevator and great view .

Finally something for free in this town ! Worth the visit for sure!

Elli ❄️

Great view from the top ! You can take the stairs or the elevator for 5,5€

Danica Sretenovic

Worth visiting, especially when there is music performance in cathedral itself

mari ban ????????????

Incredible architecture !!!!it's astonishing!!!!you must visit it!!!!

Grazyna O

Beautiful church . Unfortunately crowded with grown-ups who could not be quite when I visited it. Maybe a good idea to visit it early when they open.

Pelin Dura

buy a all inclusief ticket, definitly worth it! it will take you back to the history of the church and the design

MEININGER Hotels

ust like the great ferries wheel the St Stephan’s cathedral in the city center is one of Vienna’s famous landmarks .

Meredith Hull

Breathtakingly beautiful cathedral in the heart of Vienna . Seemed to be €5.50 to get to the top now

Morten Grantzau

Breathtaking cathedral ! Please be quiet and respect people going to church ????

Thomas Pfueller

More impressive from the outside than the inside at least if you have seen curches and cathedrals in Italy and Spain.

Bayan AlShebel

Beautiful scenery and peaceful atmosphere ❤

Lamia

Nice but I like it better from the outside

Nicole Tseng

North Tower is outdoors, has a better view AND an elevator . Even if you want the exercise, skip the South Tower . Way anticlimactic.

Saba Irani

After so many years, I still love walking on Stephansplatz so much! This place is one of the best things about Vienna!

lino brescia™

Majed Alashari

Beautiful church in the center of the city !

Ghazal Nkz

This is an exclusive example of gothic architecture and a must when in Vienna

Johannes Steudle

Very nice church , there's no entrance fee so just have a look inside!

Zaptravel Inc

The Stephansdom, the city ’s famous cathedral , is a towering house of worship wedged into a modest size square known at the Stephansplatz.

Edward Roozeboom

It's impressive to see from the inside and outside, but the tours are a bit messy. Nonetheless, worth a visit!

Büşra UL

It is the landmark of Vienna and a must-see for tourists . P.S. It looks like it's made of lace. ☺️

S

Paying 4.5 Euros to climb 343 stairs until reaching the top. It was the most annoying experience of my vienna trip.

Salil Sabhlok

Majestic.. Do take the elevator to the top of the church to get the overview of Vienna..

Felipe Tofani

The best place to see the colorful tiles on the church ceiling.
