The Roman Catholic city parish church of St. Martin in Hartberg is a true jewel of Styrian church history and deeply rooted in the faith of our ancestors. It is dedicated to Saint Martin of Tours, one of the most important saints, known primarily for his charity. The location of the church alone is impressive, as it stands on the remains of a Roman structure from around 200 AD, which shows how long the area of Hartberg has been settled and how closely history is intertwined here. The first written mention of the late Gothic city parish church of St. Martin dates back to 1157. At that time, it was an important spiritual center in the region. From 1745 to 1760, the church was expanded in the Baroque style, which shapes its current appearance. Particularly exciting is the late Baroque coloring of the exterior, which gives the church its unique character and immediately amazes visitors. The high altar painting, created by the renowned artist Johann Cyriak Hackhofer, captures the attention of all believers and wonderfully expresses the spiritual aura of the house of God. Anyone who visits the city parish church of St. Martin immediately feels the connection of history, art, and faith, which is deeply rooted here and keeps Styrian Catholicism alive. Thus, the church is not only a place of prayer but also a testament to Hartberg's cultural identity.

A truly imposing church here in the center of Hartberg. It dominates the cityscape and cannot be missed. And no matter if viewed from the front, back, or side: we like it from all angles.

A beautiful spot here in the middle of the woods with a charming chapel. It was built in 1866 and renovated in 1994 and 2003. It's the perfect place to rest and reflect. Fantastic! Addendum: I actually thought it was the "Loretto Chapel" according to the signage?!?
