One of the city's prettiest churches, the Peterskirche was built in 1733 according to plans of the celebrated baroque architect Johann Lukas von Hildebrandt. Interior highlights that make a visit highly worthwhile include a fresco on the dome painted by Johann Michael Rottmayr and a golden altar depicting the martyrdom of St John of Nepomuk. Regular organ recitals and concerts are also held here; check the program online.
