Liesing, Administrative district in southern Vienna, Austria.

Liesing is an administrative district in southern Vienna that covers roughly 32 square kilometers at the city's edge. The area combines industrial and residential zones with green spaces that make up about one-third of the district.

The district was created in 1954 through the merger of eight former municipalities that each brought their own local identities and structures. This combination shaped the area into the diverse part of Vienna it is today.

The Wotruba Church displays an unusual architectural style from the 1960s, constructed from 152 concrete blocks that appear stacked like cubes. This structure shapes the district's character and shows how religious buildings could look when designed with a modern approach.

The district connects to Vienna's public transportation network through several stations, offering direct access to the city center and neighboring areas. Visitors can explore the region most easily using the subway, bus, or tram system.

The area contains three historical castles scattered within it: Schloss Liesing, Schloss Rodaun near Bergkirche Rodaun, and Schloss Alterlaa. These medieval structures remain standing amid the modern urban and green spaces of the district today.
