Herzmansky, Protected historical department store in Neubau, Austria.

Herzmansky is a protected department store in Vienna's Neubau district, located at the corner of Mariahilfer Strasse and Stiftgasse. The five-story building displays marble pillars, wrought-iron details, and a central courtyard, with golden mosaic inscriptions visible on its facade.

Merchant August Herzmansky founded the store in 1863 and grew it into the largest department store of the Austro-Hungarian Empire. The business played a key role in shaping Vienna's retail landscape during the 1800s.

The store was a meeting place for Viennese people seeking modern goods under one roof. Shopping itself changed here because of fixed prices that customers could not negotiate.

The building at Stiftgasse 3 preserves its original exterior design and is easily visible from the street. Visitors can observe the facade and details from outside without any special conditions required.

The store expanded so successfully that it operated five separate locations across Vienna by 1917. This growth made Herzmansky a pioneer of modern retail chains in Europe.
