From the outside one of the most impressive and beautiful churches in Vienna! The small park around it invites you to linger. Unfortunately we could not visit inside because it was closed at the time

The "Mexico Church", the official name is the Parish Church of St. Francis of Assisi, is a Roman Catholic church in Vienna's 2nd district of Leopoldstadt. It is located on Mexikoplatz near the Reichsbrücke and is a striking building in the neo-Gothic style. The foundation stone was laid on June 10, 1900 by Prince Archbishop Cardinal Anton Josef Gruscha in the presence of the emperor and more than 100,000 people. The church was built to mark the 50th anniversary of Emperor Franz Joseph I's reign. It is therefore also known as the Imperial Jubilee Church.
