Snapshot

The Sebastianskirche on Linzer Gasse is a Baroque parish church rebuilt in the mid-18th century, best known as the entrance to the Sebastiansfriedhof, the arcaded Italian garden cemetery that Wolf Dietrich von Raitenau commissioned around 1600. The mausoleum of Wolf Dietrich, the graves of Paracelsus, Leopold Mozart, and Constanze Mozart are all in the cemetery beyond the church porch.

    All 22 Churches of the Old Town

    The old town is about 1.5 square kilometres and has 22 churches. This is the order I would walk them, from Holy Trinity on Makartplatz across both banks and up two city mountains to St. Sebastian. Three to four hours, and you see every corner of the old town on the way.
