Papstkreuz

Pope john paul II held church service here in the 1980s

Very big!

Looks like a scaffold erected it! Not nice at all 😱

For a few minutes of tranquility and a real cure-all, excellent walks in the "shadow" of the tower

This wonderful cross is a widely visible sign of our Lord Jesus Christ. It was built for the Pope's Mass on the occasion of the visit of Pope John Paul II to Vienna in 1983. It commemorated the 300th anniversary of the end of the siege of Vienna in 1683, which is due to the Polish relief army under King John III Sobieski, which came from Kahlenberg. At that time, the Pope ravaged a Holy Mass with more than 300,000 participants. The cross was nearly demolished, it is the initiative of brave people that it was restored and preserved. It is an important sign in this world that needs salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ.
