Parish Church of Weißenkirchen

Highlight • Religious Site

Surrounded by sunny vine hills and embedded between the silver ribbon of the Danube and green forests, the mighty Gothic parish church of Weißenkirchen rises in the Wachau. With the wine-growing villages Joching, Wösendorf and St. Michael Weißenkirchen forms in harmony the largest wine-growing community of the Wachau.

The romantic wine-growing town of Weissenkirchen has preserved its originality and is one of the most popular holiday destinations in the Wachau World Cultural Heritage region.

Look forward to wine, culture and enjoyment in Weißenkirchen - the heart of the Wachau!
