Weinbergkirche, Vienna
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Weinbergkirche is a Lutheran parish church in the Börnergasse suburb of Sievering in the 19th district of Vienna, Döbling.
The Döbling congregation originated as a sub-group in the Lutherkirche within the Währing parish. The Döbling parish was made independent in 1965; its services were held at first in rented accommodation in the Kreindlgasse. After an affordable site for a church was found in the Börnergasse, the Weinbergkirche was erected there between 1980 and 1981. The name of the church (Weinbergkirche = Vineyard Church) is a reference both to its location by a vineyard and to the Biblical parables of the vineyard, grapevine and wine grapes.
