Gedenkstätte für die Opfer der Gestapo Wien, Holocaust memorial museum in Vienna, Austria
The memorial center occupies the former Gestapo headquarters building, displaying documents, photographs, and personal belongings of persecution victims during World War II.
The Gestapo headquarters processed over 50,000 individuals through this location between 1938 and 1945, using the building's rear entrance on Salztorgasse for prisoner intake.
The memorial space presents individual stories and testimonies of victims, creating a direct connection between historical events and their impact on Austrian society.
The Documentation Centre offers guided tours in multiple languages on Thursdays from 3:00 PM to 6:30 PM, with specialized programs for educational groups.
The original Hotel Métropole building housed the largest Gestapo office in the German Reich, employing 900 staff members before its destruction in March 1945.
