Rathausplatz
Situated in the heart of St Pölten, Rathausplatz is a pretty town square lined with cafes
and eye-catching pastel-coloured buildings. It is dominated by the Rathaus on its southern
side, which has a baroque facade (1727) designed by Joseph Munggenast. On the north-
ern fringe is the Franziskanerkirche MAP GOOGLE MAP (Rathausplatz 12; dawn-dusk) , completed
in 1770 with a grandiose altar offset by side altar paintings by Kremser Schmidt.
Between the two is the tall Dreifaltigkeitssäule MAP GOOGLE MAP (Trinity Column; Rathausplatz) dat-
