Wohnhausanlage Friedrich-Engels-Platz
Wohnhausanlage Friedrich-Engels-Platz, Municipal housing complex in Brigittenau, Austria
The Friedrich-Engels-Platz residential complex features 1,467 apartments across multiple buildings with distinct towers and decorated balconies at its entrance.
Architect Rudolf Perco, a student of Otto Wagner, designed this social housing development between 1930 and 1933 during Vienna's municipal construction program.
Animal mosaics by Mario Petrucci and stone sculptures by Karl Stemolak demonstrate the integration of public art throughout the residential complex.
The complex contains essential services including a kindergarten, post office, pharmacy, laundry facilities, shops, and restaurants for resident convenience.
The building served as a strategic location during the 1934 Austrian Civil War and later incorporated a church following the Austrofascist takeover.
