St. Peter's Church is a jewel-box Baroque church just off the Graben, modelled on St. Peter's in Rome. Despite its modest exterior wedged between buildings, the oval interior bursts with frescoes, gold leaf, and dramatic Baroque illusionism.
The current church (1733) replaced a 4th-century original that was one of Vienna's oldest Christian sites. Johann Lukas von Hildebrandt designed the interior.
