Mariahilf, Administrative district in Vienna, Austria

The sixth district of Vienna covers 1.48 square kilometers and contains five neighborhoods: Mariahilf, Gumpendorf, Windmühle, Magdalenengrund, and Laimgrube.

The district emerged from the unification of five historical towns in 1850, following a municipal reform that aimed to decentralize Vienna's administration.

The district maintains the Haydn House museum, multiple theaters, and educational institutions including sections of the Vienna University of Technology.

Mariahilfer Straße forms the northern boundary of the district and functions as Vienna's primary shopping street with numerous retail establishments.

The Haus des Meeres aquarium occupies a former World War II anti-aircraft tower, combining maritime exhibits with panoramic views of Vienna.
