Vienna’s Social Housing: A Global Inspiration

Vienna is regarded worldwide as a role model for social housing. But how did this success story begin? On this tour, we explore the development of social housing - from the imposing municipal buildings of "Red Vienna" to alternative concepts such as the Hundertwasserhaus and modern housing projects. We start at the Reumannhof, one of the first socialist residential palaces of the 1920s, and discover how architecture at the time combined affordable housing with social infrastructure. We continue to the Rabenhof, where culture and housing form a symbiosis, and to the Hundertwasserhaus, which shows how housing can also be individual and playful. Finally, we take a look at forward-looking housing concepts such as the Sargfabrik - a self-managed housing project with a focus on community and sustainability. This tour gives you exciting insights into Vienna's revolutionary approach to affordable housing. A success story that continues to this day.
