Frauenplatz und Frauenkirche

Bad Radkersburg

Die Frauenkirche Maria Hilf ist ein spätbarockes Bauwerk, dessen Vorgängerbau 1504 erstmals erwähnt wird.

From the main square, you pass through a baroque archway to an atmospheric square named after its church. The Church of Our Lady Maria Hilf is a late Baroque building whose predecessor was first mentioned in 1504. The tower with its onion dome was built by Michael Schmidt in 1802.
Above the main portal there is a stone sculpture of Our Lady of Sorrows. One enters the church through a copper gate, a work of the Styrian artist Franz Weiss. The frescoes on the walls and vaults of the choir are by the painter Matthias Schiffer and are dated to the end of the 18th century. The Jewish population of Radkersburg also lived in the area of Frauenplatz in the Middle Ages. Probably the synagogue was located on the square where the Church of Our Lady stands today.
At the end of the 15th century, as a result of a decree of Maximilian I, the Jews were expelled throughout Austria. Via the Frauenplatz one reaches the Murgasse. At its junction with Theatergasse is the former Capuchin monastery church.
