Großweikersdorf rectory
The Pfarrhof Großweikersdorf is located at Jubiläumstrasse 1 in the market town of Großweikersdorf in the Tulln district in Lower Austria . The rectory is a listed building and belongs to the Roman Catholic parish church Großweikersdorf .
The rectory was rebuilt in 1727 after a fire. In 1949 a second floor was added. The seven-axis building shows a facade with pilaster strips .
In the courtyard there is a simple dump box from the 18th century.
The baroque dovecote , also erected in the courtyard in 1727, wears an onion helmet and is reminiscent of the heraldic animal of the market town. The total height is 8.5 m, the onion helmet itself has a height of 4.4 m. In 1960 the desolate Taubenkobel was removed and renewed true to the original in the HTL Krems an der Donau and temporarily stored in the market town until 1999. In 1999, the Taubenkobel was rediscovered by volunteers in the community barn and partly restored and put back in its original location.
