The branch church of the Most Holy Redeemer is a Roman Catholic church of the provost parish of the cathedral in Wiener Neustadt at Brunner Strasse 5–7.

A former hall of a shoe factory, built in 1919, was converted into a church from 1931 to 1932 according to the plans of the architect Clemens Holzmeister . The flat long rectangular building shows a facade with pilaster strips and eaves made of brick masonry. In the roof area there is a rectangular blind gable, which is pierced for a bell and is crowned by a simple cross. In the flat-roofed hall, the area of ​​the presbytery is slightly elevated and set off from the parish room by wooden built-ins on the sides. On the east wall there was originally a crucifix by the sculptor Anton Hanak , which was replaced after the war by a work by Johann Coleselli . A modern Madonna figure comes from the sculptor Hans Andre . The reverse glass painting of the Stations of the Cross was created by the painter Thiem-Samassa.
