Kulturzentrum Gassergasse

Kulturzentrum Gassergasse is a cultural center and museum in Vienna's Margareten district housed across multiple connected buildings. The spaces contain exhibition areas, cultural facilities, and a neighborhood museum focused on local history and art.

The center was founded between 1981 and 1983 as Vienna's first independent youth facility under Mayor Leopold Gratz. It was created to provide space for alternative groups and cultural activities that had nowhere else to go in the city.

The center displays photographs and crafted objects that document how people have lived in Margareten over time. The exhibition shows the residents who shaped the district and remain part of its identity today.

The museum section is mainly open on Thursdays from 4:00 PM to 7:00 PM, and visits can be arranged outside these hours by appointment. Anyone planning to visit beyond regular opening times should contact ahead to schedule a guided visit.

The building complex houses a steel vault built in 1900 that originally served a Vienna savings bank. Visitors can view this impressive structure and see how such security systems were constructed in that era.
