10 Churches & Cathedrals in Austrian Alps That You Shouldn't Miss

February 26, 2022 Ying Subia

The majestic Austrian Alps stretch across the country, an awe-striking area of Ice Age valleys, verdant heaths and alluvial cones within Europe's largest national park, 700-square-mile Hohe Tauern. Taking in the dramatic cities of Salzburg and Innsbruck and the beautiful province of Tirol, home to spectacular skiing and hiking, as well as Gross Glockner, Austria's highest peak, and some of the world's best winter and summer sports playgrounds, the Austrian Alps are an outdoor lover's paradise.

Franziskanerkirche

Reviewed By GroverR - Pensacola, United States

What it lacks in size compared to the Cathedral it makes up in height and design. It was originally the high vaulted section with the altar. An addition was made for more seating but it really gives the church an odd design. The best part is the original building with the high roof and tower. While the inside is beautiful with several side chapels and great stain glass, it is the vaulted ceiling and five support columns that make this a Salzburg MUST SEE. It is what distinguishes the church and makes it unique, along with is Gothic design in a Baroque city.
