Klose-Hof, Heritage building in Oberdöbling, Vienna, Austria

The five-story residential complex features decorative floral elements on its facade and a central courtyard with distinct red three-winged windows throughout the structure.

Architect Josef Hoffmann designed this municipal building between 1924 and 1925, creating 143 apartments to address the housing needs of working-class residents.

The building received its name in 1949 in honor of Viktor Klose, who participated in the Austrian Civil War and met a tragic end in 1934.

Located near Wiener Gürtel, the building underwent extensive renovations from 2003 to 2005, adding 18 new apartments and modernizing facilities for current residents.

Two grand entrance portals on Philippovichgasse display sculptures called 'Fruit Bearers' created by Anton Hanak following specific designs from architect Hoffmann.
