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.
