Lonely Planet review

This distinctive Art Nouveau creation was the work of Otto Wagner from 1904 to 1907; Kolo Moser chipped in with the mosaic windows. The copper-covered dome earned the nickname Limoniberg (lemon mountain) for its original golden colour. The design illustrates the victory of function over ornamentation prevalent in much of Wagner's work. The church is currently closed for renovation - phone ahead to check opening times.
