What makes it 63% Baby-Friendly: Infants may enter in stroller and leave easily, yet the church lacks nursing rooms and changing tables and organ volume can upset babies, so parents must bring gear and be ready to exit often.
Why 1-2 hours visit duration is ideal for with baby: A short visit lets you admire the Baroque art and attend a mass or recital without tiring your baby.
Admire Baroque interior and dome frescoes:
Walk through the nave to see the gilded pulpit, silver-and-gold relief, and Matthias Steinl’s frescoes on the vault.
Tip: Visit right at opening to avoid crowds and push your stroller down the center aisle.
Attend a weekday Mass:
Join the 11:00, 12:30, or 17:00 service for a quiet family-friendly experience.
Tip: Sit near the back aisle for quick exits if your baby needs a break.
Enjoy a free organ recital:
Catch a 30–45-minute organ or choir recital at 13:30 or 15:00 in the main church.
Tip: Use a baby carrier and stand at the side aisle to minimize noise exposure.

Small but surprisingly beautiful church. First I thought it would be just another little church. Still decided to visit purely for spiritual purposes but after stepping in, I was speechless. There was the prayer going on and the whole experience with the prayer, organ music, singing, and interior was simply amazing.

Very imposing and nice church to visit. Entry is fee though you are encouraged to make a donation. They do have people playing the church organ from time to time. During those times, the sanctuary area might be closed until after the performance. The interior of the church looks very beautiful. Worth a visit.

St. Peter’s Church is one of those places that leaves you speechless the moment you step inside. Tucked away just off the bustling Graben, it might be easy to miss if you’re not looking for it—but it’s absolutely worth seeking out. The baroque architecture is stunning. Every inch of the interior is intricately detailed—gilded sculptures, vivid frescoes, and an altar that practically glows in the ...

St. Peter’s Church is absolutely stunning with beautiful architecture and incredible artwork that make it worth a visit on its own. We attended a concert here and, while the seats weren’t the most comfortable, the musicians were outstanding. Their performance truly transported us through time and space, perfectly matched to the historic and atmospheric setting. A memorable experience in a breathta...
In summer the interior stays cool—a great midday stop. In winter, avoid the monthly crypt concerts if your baby is sensitive to loud music.
