Zacherlfabrik, Protected industrial building in Unterdöbling, Austria

The Zacherlfabrik features ceramic tiles on its facade and dome, with an administration section showcasing Oriental design elements at Nußwaldgasse 14 in Vienna.

Johann Zacherl established the factory in 1870 to produce insect powder, expanding the business to international markets including Paris, London, and New York.

The factory building represents a rare example of commercial Oriental architecture in Europe, constructed between 1888 and 1892 under Karl Mayreder's direction.

The Wienerberger brick factory manufactured specialized ceramic tiles for the building's exterior decoration, contributing to its distinguished appearance.

After ceasing insect powder production, the factory transformed into an arts venue in 2006, hosting exhibitions and performances until 2013.
