Second Vienna Mountain Spring Pipeline, Water pipeline system in Vienna, Austria
The Second Vienna Mountain Spring Pipeline extends over 180 kilometers from the Styrian Salza Valley through Lower Austria to supply Vienna with fresh water.
Construction of this extensive water infrastructure began in 1900 under Mayor Karl Lueger, requiring 10,000 workers and an investment of 100 million Crowns.
The formal inauguration took place on December 2, 1910, at Vienna City Hall, where Emperor Francis Joseph I celebrated the completion of this major infrastructure project.
The water system includes more than 100 aqueducts and 19 inverted siphons spanning up to 2.5 kilometers to transport water across rivers and valleys.
Water from the mountain springs takes approximately 36 hours to travel through the pipeline system before reaching its final destination in Vienna.
