Wiener Konzerthaus
Concert Hall
In 1890, the plans of the future "House for Music Festivals" already suggested that the new event venue was to represent scale and variety in Vienna. The vision was a multi-purpose building which, unlike the traditional Musikverein, was to appeal to different sections of the population and thus offers lots of space for a wide range of different events. The Wiener Konzerthaus was built in the years 1911 to 1913 by the architects Ferdinand Fellner, Hermann Helmer, and Ludwig Baumann – with three halls at the time.
