Flak-Kaserne Küniglberg, Military barracks on Küniglberg hill, Vienna, Austria.

The military complex stands at 257 meters elevation on Küniglberg hill, featuring concrete structures designed for defense operations in the western part of Vienna.

Construction of the Wehrmacht barracks began in June 1938 under Göring's command, serving as an anti-aircraft defense facility during World War II.

The barracks transformed into the ORF Broadcasting Center between 1968 and 1974, marking a shift from military to media purposes in Austrian society.

The location offers direct access to major highways and maintains strategic viewing positions toward both northern and southern directions of Vienna.

The facility operated a small aircraft runway in 1951 under British occupation forces before its conversion into Austria's central television studios.
