Hofpavillon Hietzing, Art Nouveau railway pavilion in Hietzing district, Vienna, Austria.
The Otto Wagner Hofpavillon Hietzing is a railway pavilion in the Hietzing district, built in 1899 as a waiting area. Its white stuccoed facade with a central domed roof shows Wagner's approach of combining function with thoughtful decoration.
The building was completed between 1898 and 1899 as part of Vienna's new city railway and served Emperor Franz Joseph I as a private waiting area. Its construction marked a turning point in modern transport architecture across Europe.
The octagonal main hall displays mahogany panels and embroidered wall coverings that show how craftsmanship and modern design worked together. A large painting by Carl Moll inside captures Vienna's railway system and remains a focal point of the space.
The building is open only on certain days with limited hours, so check ahead before visiting. The location is close to tram stops and easily accessible by public transport.
The building was originally designed only for the imperial family and later opened to the public. This exclusive past is still felt in every detail of its interior.
