The church is located on the Vienna Way of St. James. Here you can also get a pilgrim stamp for your stamp booklet.

The foundation stone was laid on April 24, 1887. The first part of the church was inaugurated on December 4, 1887. The prefabricated construction of the basilica was difficult due to lack of money, a donation from the emperor could help. The basilica was finally consecrated on April 28, 1895 with the participation of Emperor Franz Joseph I.

After being incorporated into Vienna in 1850, Kaisermühlen belonged to the 2nd Viennese district Leopoldstadt for many decades, so the residents had to make a long and arduous journey to “their” parish church of St. Nepomuk. The regulation of the Danube from 1870 to 1875 meant that Kaisermühlen was now more severely cut off from the rest of the district than before by the new main river of the Danube. The first attempt to establish their own house of worship in Kaisermühlen was made in 1873 and failed: The so-called "iron church", in the way it was built as an emergency church in England, was never accepted by the Kaisermühlen and one day disappeared without a trace.
