The parish church of Feuersbrunn stands on the southwestern edge of the village of Feuersbrunn in the market town of Grafenwörth. It is dedicated to Saint Giles and belongs to the Hadersdorf deanery of the Archdiocese of Vienna. A parish in Feuersbrunn is documented as early as before 1355. The original medieval church had a west tower, which now serves as the chancel, and was extended with a south chapel in 1679. In the 18th century, the nave was built in the late Baroque style, and the church was extended and reoriented to the east. Inside, there are three Rococo altars dating from the time of construction, an organ from 1881, and numerous renovations, most recently in 1985 (interior) and 1969 (exterior). The church is a listed building and is considered an important example of late Baroque church architecture in the Wagram region.

The Peace Stupa in Wagram near Feuersbrunn is one of the largest Buddhist peace monuments in Europe. Built between 2016 and 2019 according to the design of Austrian architect Matthias Rainer, it reaches a height of 32.5 meters and a diameter of approximately 30 meters. Particularly noteworthy is the accessible interior, designed as a space for meditation and encounters. The ceremonial inauguration took place on June 4, 2023. Construction was privately financed through the Stupa Institute of the Austrian Buddhist Religious Society and carried out under the spiritual guidance of monk Bop Jon Sunim, who had previously been involved in the Hungarian Peace Stupa in Zalaszántó. Inside the stupa are relics of the historical Buddha Shakyamuni, presented by the Dalai Lama, while a gilded Buddha statue weighing approximately 700 kilograms sits atop it. A large peace bell and the surrounding garden with meditation paths, sculptures, and prayer flags invite spiritual contemplation. The stupa symbolizes peace, compassion, and religious tolerance and is open to all people regardless of their faith.

The Peace Stupa at Wagram, also known as the Grafenwörth Stupa, is an impressive Buddhist peace monument in Lower Austria. It is located on a hill near Feuersbrunn in the Tulln district and was built between 2016 and 2019. The official inauguration took place on June 4, 2023. Designed by the Austrian architect Matthias Rainer, the stupa is one of the largest Buddhist stupas in Europe, with a height of 32.5 meters and a diameter of approximately 30 meters. Of particular note is the accessible interior, designed as a place for meditation and encounters – a truly unique feature of this size. The project was privately funded by the Stupa Institute of the Austrian Buddhist Religious Society, under the spiritual guidance of the Buddhist monk Bop Jon Sunim (Tenzin Tharchin), who also contributed to the Peace Stupa in Zalaszántó, Hungary. However, the construction was not without controversy, as it encroached on an ecologically sensitive area with nesting sites for the hoopoe, which led to protests and delays. Inside the stupa are relics of the historical Buddha Shakyamuni, presented by His Holiness the Dalai Lama. At the top is a gilded Buddha statue weighing approximately 700 kilograms, donated from South Korea. A large peace bell is also part of the inventory. The surrounding garden is designed as a place of peace and spiritual contemplation, with meditation paths, sculptures, and prayer flags. The stupa symbolizes peace, compassion, and tolerance and is open to people of all faiths who seek peace and encounter here.

Beautiful lookout point with a rest area and a view over the Wagram and Grafenegg Castle 😊 ... Well, not visible in the photos in the wet, cold and foggy January 😄 ... even more beautiful photos will follow in spring/summer 2025 👍
