St. Pölten Cathedral (Assumption of Mary)
The Dom zu St. Pölten is a cathedral church and since 1785 the cathedral of the Diocese of St. Pölten. Until the dissolution of the St. Pölten Augustinian Canons' Monastery in 1784, it was its monastery church. The cathedral and parish church of the Assumption of the Virgin Mary belongs to the deanery of St. Pölten. Despite the well-preserved late Romanesque core, the building appears to be a baroque structure and is a listed building.

Mary's Column, Herrenplatz, Sankt Pölten
The Marian Column, which was built in 1718
The history of the Marian column
The Marian Column was founded in 1717 by Anna Maria Grimb based on a vow made during the plague and was erected in 1718. Her grandson Jakob Weinhardt von Tierburg decreed in his will that the Marian column should be illuminated with the four lanterns every Saturday and on Marian holidays. This has happened every Saturday since 1749, even today. That's why the square used to be called “Saturday Square”.
