A church built around 1130, a chapel was added to the south side around 1230 and expanded around 1400. The early Gothic choir was built around the middle of the 13th century and the distinctive west tower was expanded in the first half of the 15th century. After the church was damaged during the Second Turkish Siege of Vienna, the nave was raised and vaulted as part of the repairs. The sacristy is in the Baroque style and was added to the north side in the middle of the 18th century. The church was badly damaged during World War II and rebuilt in 1951/52.

A church built around 1130, originally part of a castle complex destroyed in the 16th century. A chapel was added to the south side around 1230 and expanded around 1400, which probably means the addition of the southern aisle. Around the middle of the 13th century the early Gothic choir was built and in the first half of the 15th century the distinctive west tower was expanded. After the church was damaged during the second Turkish siege of Vienna, the nave was raised and vaulted in the course of repairs. The sacristy is in baroque style and was added on the north side in the middle of the 18th century. During World War II the church was badly damaged and rebuilt in 1951/52.
