Victoria ClarkeDecember 28, 2015The elevator then creaky rickety steps to the top of the dome are a it nerve-wracking, but it's a cool view
- Sam ChapmanOctober 13, 2018Vivaldi's four seasons concert is a must, seeing the church interior and hearing the sound architecture from violin concerto on one ticket was great value
Charlotte LJune 5, 2015Cheap student entry (€4) with the tower included - much more worthwhile to go here instead of St Stephen's Cathedral (which is about €10 for the entry plus the tower)- Otel.comNovember 15, 2011Built in 1713, this magnificent Baroque church south of the Karlsplatz, Vienna has a breathtaking altar designed by Fischer von Erlach and frescoes by Johann Michael Rottmayr.
Tiago AbadeApril 23, 2018Relax, excellent wall paintings, and an elevator that allows seeing the city ciew
- Mark BJune 28, 2018Beautiful church and one of the oldest in Vienna. Saw a Verdi Concert one evening and the sound was incredible.
Peter MORTIMEROctober 22, 2014A piano concert in in the offing! And the most astounding place to sit and listen to it!
Daniel ZanderOctober 16, 2017Beautiful church but not worth the 8€ entry. The panorama is just the top (inside) of the dome, sure its high up but the windows are dirty which blocks the view.
Manddy GOctober 25, 2014It is very beautiful one, but the entrance fee is too expensive for what you can see. Ok, it is very different to take a panoramic lift inside the church, but still expensive for the whole thing...
- ViennaInfoMarch 22, 2012A magnificent religious building with a large cupola: St. Charles' Church, the last work of the eminent baroque architect Johann Bernhard Fischer von Erlach. Read more
Evangelia LeontidouNovember 29, 2018Very beautiful christmas market in front of this wonderful church!
Raymond PeckMarch 22, 2018Beautiful but not worth the entry fee. Also might be under construction obstructing your view so beware.
Nic D.October 17, 2019Es kostet nicht viel, aber lohnt sich wirklich. Barock vom Feinsten und dank des Aufzugs kann man die Fresken der Kuppel aus der Nähe betrachten. Machen!

Ângelo Miguel GeraldoOctober 8, 2015A Igreja de São Carlos é um dos melhores edifícios barrocos da Europa. O simbolismo das duas colunas exóticas na fachada, ilustra o poder secular dos Habsburgos e a legitimidade espiritual.
Zita MeyerAugust 29, 2019Dieses Gebäude und deren Hintergrund hat mich wirklich beeindruckt. Gebaut um 1738 birgt allein das Äußere viel Geschichte. Von innen ist es nicht weniger imposant. Unbedingt besuchen!
Nagehan NagehanSeptember 12, 2018Viyana’ya gitmeden önce opera konseri araştırdık ve burada Vivaldi 4 mevsim konserine yer bulduk.klisede opera dinlemek çok güzel bir deneyim ayrıca klisenin içi çok hoştu.ses ambiyans çok güzeldi- Molotov CupcakeSeptember 23, 2020Johann Bernhard Fischer von Erlach gestaltete die Kirche 1716 als Verbindung zwischen Rom und Byzanz. So lehnt sie sich an das Erscheinungsbild der Hagia Sophia an und imitiert die Trajanssäule
Наталья ПикуликMarch 24, 2014Место очень впечатляет, особенно роспись под куплом, хорошо что туда можно подняться на лифте и прикоснуться к искусству)))))
Fabiano TrindadeJuly 29, 2018Uma das mais imponentes igrejas de Viena, também uma das que cobra a visitação, mas vale a pena. O interior possui um belo altar.
Paulina T.March 29, 2016Ходили на "Времена года" Вивальди прохладной весной. Давали пледы, но берите места в 3 категорию, потому что там дают стуля и теплее сидеть, хотя дуло ужасно сильно. Несмотря на всё музыка прекрасная
Jogur_tApril 6, 2015До этого были в луна-парке. Так вот, подъем сначала на лифте, а потом пешком по маленькой лестнице, построенной на шатающихся лесах - вот это аттракцион, который может пощекотать нервы впечатлительным
KumizMay 3, 2017내부를 보려면 입장료를 내야해요(€8/학생€4) 엘리베이터타고 프레스코천정화를 감상할수 있으니 들어왔다면 꼭 올라가세요 성삼위 일체에게 기도하는 성 카를로 보로메오 주교를 묘사한 그림이 있어요:)
Alexander LöbleinMarch 26, 2012Das Podest ist zwar oben ein bissl wackelig, aber es lohnt sich auf jeden fall mal raufzufahren. wo sieht man schon mal deckengemälde aus dieser Nähe.
SofiaDecember 20, 2012Обязательно поднимитесь на панорамном лифте (цена 6 евро). Вид на город никакой, но можно рассмотреть фрески под куполом. Непередаваемые ощущения!
Luis GCNovember 7, 2014La entrada cuesta 8€, por ese precio intenta ver el interior aprovechando alguno de los conciertos que celebran dentro
Isaac YiJuly 30, 2012성당 안에 들어가 리프트를 타고 올라간후 계단을 힘겹게 올라 지붕 젤꼭대기까지 가면 이 그림이 따악! 그림 구경하면서 올라가다 이 그림으로 끝나니 살짝 감동이 :)
- Molotov CupcakeSeptember 23, 2020Die Kuppelmalerei (Kuppelfresko von Johann Michael Rottmayr) ist über einen Panoramalift aus der Nähe zu betrachten
Alfred D.September 21, 2011Highlight: mit dem Panoramalift ganz nach oben in die Kuppel und dann noch einige Treppen-Etagen bis in den obersten Kuppelteil. Schwindelfreiheit notwendig, aber sehr sehensert! (6,- Euro/Erw.)
