Bezirksmuseum Floridsdorf, District museum in Floridsdorf, Austria.
The Bezirksmuseum Floridsdorf sits in the Mautner-Schlössl building and features exhibition rooms spread across multiple floors. Each space tells the story of the district's development and shows different aspects of local life over time.
The building was constructed in 1900 by Georg Heinrich Mautner von Markhof and initially served as a residence. After 1944 it transformed into an administrative center and eventually became a museum dedicated to district history.
The museum preserves memories of important district figures, including a memorial room for Franz Jonas, a former Vienna mayor, and displays connections to Ludwig van Beethoven. Visitors can explore local history through the stories of these notable people.
The museum maintains specific opening hours on select days, so visitors should check the exact times before planning a visit. Tours can be arranged on request to learn more about the exhibitions.
The building has a distinctive architectural story: the original flat roof was replaced with a prominent hipped roof. This change shows how the structure adapted over the decades.
