Raxwerke

Raxwerke is an industrial complex in Wiener Neustadt featuring multiple structures from the World War II era, including the notable Serbenhalle, a large production building with distinctive internal framework. The site displays the typical layout of a factory with halls, storage areas, and technical infrastructure from that period.

The complex was established in 1942 under German control as part of military production, initially focusing on tank components and later shifting to rocket parts. The site suffered significant damage from Allied bombing and never resumed operations after the war.

The site reflects how industrial towns like Wiener Neustadt were shaped by major historical events, with buildings that still carry memories of their former purpose. You can see how manufacturing spaces become witnesses to the past when you walk through the grounds.

The site is difficult to access today as it functions as a storage facility and is not open to casual visitors. It is best to view the buildings from the perimeter or arrange access in advance through local authorities or heritage organizations.

The complex was specifically designed with vertical assembly capabilities for rockets, a rare specialized manufacturing technique that was considered cutting-edge technology at the time. This design feature remains visible in the surviving structures today and makes it a noteworthy example of wartime industrial engineering.
