Villa Hohe Warte, Municipal orphanage in Döbling, Austria

The Villa Hohe Warte spans six floors with east and west wings, containing apartments measuring between 150 and 200 square meters each.

The Municipality of Vienna constructed this building in 1907 as the sixth municipal orphanage, designed by architects Eduard Lasch, Josef Pürzl, and Julius Fröhlich.

The Swedish aid organization Rädda Barnen operated the facility in 1946, providing care for children between three and six years old.

The property encompasses over 10,000 square meters of land, including parking facilities and sports infrastructure on the Hohe Warte grounds.

The building transformed from an orphanage to become the Permanent Mission of China to the United Nations in Vienna following a 21 million euro sale in 2013.
