contents We present the quantization of all symmetry reductions of the Einstein--Hilbert Lagrangian that correctly reproduce the reduced Einstein's field equations -- i.e., characterized by the infinitesimal group actions obeying the principle of symmetric criticality. These correspond to the spacetime symmetries of spherical/hyperbolic/planar Schwarzschild/Taub--NUT, BI/BII/BIII-metrics, near-horizon extreme Kerr geometry, swirling universe, closed/open/flat FLRW cosmologies, other FLRW-type metrics, and Bianchi type I, II, VIII, and IX spacetimes. We derive the Hamiltonian and the conformal symmetries of the superspace metrics (the conditional symmetries), promote them to operators, and solve the Wheeler--DeWitt equation with and without imposing these symmetries.
