1. St-Georgs-Kathedrale

   • Wiener Neustadt, Austria
   • Sights › Other

   St-Georgs-Kathedrale has a fine late-Gothic interior. Maximilian I is buried under the altar. On the outside wall is the Wappenwand (Heraldic Wall) comprising 15th-century carvings of 107 coats of arms. This wall was all that survived the bombing during WWII (the stained glass had already been previously removed to the Altaussee salt mines in the Salzkammergut). The statue below the window is Friedrich III, whose AEIOU motto also appears on the wall.
