    10/25/2016 - Single-nave Renaissance building with Gothic echoes, built 1593-1598 as a representative evangelical church in place of a previous house documented since 1367. The spire erected in 1880 was modeled on the spire of the Tyn Church in Prague.

    The post-Gothic St. George's Church was built between 1593 and 1597 in place of a previous building from the 14th century. It is one of the few major Protestant Reformation churches in Lower Austria. The exterior has been redesigned in Baroque style. The 19th century spiers are modeled on the Tyn Church in Prague. The interior has a single nave, in a simple Gothic style renaissance. The city arms, the double-headed eagle and the arms of Puchhaim and Hoffmann can be seen in the vaulted mirror. The rococo pulpit dates from 1772.

    The district court on the church square of Horn is also known as a painted house or sgraffito house. The core of the three-storey building dates from the fourth quarter of the 16th century. The coat of arms on the building suggests that the sgraffito pictures marked 1583 were attached under Veit Albrecht von Puchheim as the owner. The pictures, which were painted over at an unknown point in time, were rediscovered, uncovered, restored and supplemented in 1899/1900.
