An emblematic building for Vienna, St. Charles’s Church was built by Emperor Charles VI (1685-1740) one year after the last great plague epidemic in the 19th century. He pledged to build a church for his namesake patron saint, Charles Borromeo, who was revered as a healer for plague sufferers. The church was designed by the Austrian architect Johann Bernard Fischer von Erlach (1656-1723) and built between 1716 and 1737

The church architectural design is truly impressive. Hope to visit the place one day.
I have never been to Vienna but it’s one place I plan on seeing in the not too distant future.
I was a tourist in Vienna for one day.
I did not come to visit this church. So I appreciate your article because it reminds me of that city.
There I tried the best chocolate ice cream in my life.
What a beautiful church, especially with the pool in front of it.
Oh that’s a lovely Church. Unfortunately, I’ve never had the pleasure of visiting Vienna, but I would love to. It’s such a lovely place. If I ever do, I will certainly visit this Church.
I have only visited through photos. How beautiful.
