The lower church
The more simply designed lower church contains a central hall, around with chapels are arranged.
These chapels, which are separated by columns, contain a total of 38 tombs.
The main chapel, situated directly below the high altar, contains the tomb of Dr. Karl Lueger, a former mayor of Vienna. He was born on the 24th of October 1844 and died on the 10th of March 1910. The populist and anti-Semitic politics of his Christian Social Party are sometimes viewed as a model for Hitler's Nazism.
