Alsergrund, Academic district in north Vienna, Austria.
The ninth district of Vienna extends over 2.99 square kilometers and contains seven former suburbs including Alservorstadt, Michelbeuern, and Rossau.
The district gained administrative status in 1862, merging seven independent suburbs into a single entity with strong connections to medicine and education.
The district holds residence locations of Franz Schubert, Ludwig van Beethoven, and Sigmund Freud, who lived at Berggasse 19 until 1938.
The area connects to Vienna's transportation network through underground lines U2, U4, and U6, plus the Franz-Josefs railway station for regional trains.
The Pathological Museum in Narrenturm, a circular building from 1784, displays medical specimens and instruments across multiple floors.
