Spinnerin am Kreuz

This historic building, formerly an iron forge, now houses a museum dedicated to the history of the industrial revolution in Lower Austria.

Until 1938 Wiener Neustadt had the second-largest community of Jews in Lower Austria. The cemetery was in use from the 13th to the 20th centuries, and is now maintained by the city along with the Jewish community of Vienna. The only way to visit is to call beforehand and arrange for a tour, lasting 1-2 hours. Men are required to have their heads covered.

This tower dates to the early 13th century, and is attached to one of the last remaining pieces of the city fortification, which was mostly demolished in the 19th century. In its early history the tower served as a jail and torture chamber, and now houses a small museum with old weapons and torture implements.

Housed in a former Dominican monastery, this museum has historic artifacts relating to the history of the city and wider region, and hosts regular special exhibitions.

A late-Romanesque cathedral, with foundations dating to 1279. Much of the original interior was unfortunately destroyed during remodeling in the Baroque period, and the original Gothic stained glass windows are now found in museums as far afield as Glasgow and New York. In the 19th century the 64-m-high twin towers were rebuilt after several earthquakes rendered them unstable, and since then the cathedral has been restored to its original Romanesque-Gothic form.

This building has served as the city hall since 1401. The current appearance dates from the Baroque period.
