Die "Schubertkirche" zeugt von Ihrem berühmten Interpreten, dessen Geburtshaus unweit in der Nussdorfer Straße steht.

Schöne Kirche, aber bis jetzt noch keine Messe besucht.

Beautiful church in Döbling... Worth visiting

Krasny goticky kostol s nadhernym stropom.. For centuries, the Heiligenstadt parish was an important parish in the area that now forms the district of Döbling. The church is mentioned for the first time in 1243 as a subsidiary of the Klosterneuburg Monastery; it was elevated to the status of a parish church in the 14th century. The parish covered not just Heiligenstadt, but also the surrounding villages of Nußdorf, Grinzing, Sievering, Salmannsdorf, Neustift am Walde, Oberdöbling and Unterdöbling. The parish priests were provided by the Klosterneuburg Monastery; even today, many of the district’s parishes are supervised by individuals belonging to the Monastery. As the Heiligenstadt parish was responsible for such a large number of believers, a relatively large church was built in the village. Over time however, the surrounding settlements all became independent parishes, which resulted in a gradual loss of importance for Heiligenstadt. The creation of the Sievering parish in 1348 robbed the Heiligenstadt parish of large sections of its former territory, as both Salmannsdorf and Neustift am Walde were included in the new parish. Döbling, which later became part of the Währingparish, was also made independent. The neighbouring villages of Nußdorf and Grinzing remained a part of the Heiligenstadt parish until Joseph II’s parish reform.
