Sacred Times

Viennese church building after 1945 — from Rudolf Schwarz to Heinz Tesar

The exhibition 'Heilige Zeiten' addresses the broad spectrum of architecture in postwar church building in Vienna. In the course of the Church's liturgical discourse, from the 1950s onwards Christian sacral buildings became a commission of international significance on which blue chip architects like Le Corbusier, Oscar Niemeyer or Egon Eiermann had worked. After 1945, alongside old masters in the sacral buildings sector and established Austrian architects, it was also and primarily a series of young builders who emerged with spectacular projects.
