Vorwärts Gebäude, Protected architectural monument in Margareten, Vienna

The Vorwärts Gebäude features a decorative clock on its facade and stone figures representing workers created by sculptor Anton Hanak in 1910.

Before World War I, prominent figures like Leon Trotsky, Nikolai Bukharin, and Lenin visited Victor Adler at his office in the Vorwärts building.

The building served as headquarters for the Social Democratic Workers' Party and housed the printing facilities for the Arbeiter-Zeitung newspaper until 1986.

Located at Rechte Wienzeile 97, the building currently houses the Association for the History of the Labor Movement and the Bruno Kreisky Foundation.

The stone sculptures of male and female workers, positioned on both sides of the facade clock, represent the building's connection to labor history.
