Schützenhaus, Vienna, Protected heritage clubhouse in Leopoldstadt, Austria.

The Schützenhaus is Otto Wagner's 1908 sluice-gate house for the Kaiserbad weir on the Donaukanal in Leopoldstadt. The two-storey brick building of 200 square metres has a base of Mauthausner granite, three rows of upright slabs once of Sterzinger marble, and a band of blue-glazed tiles with white wave patterns below the roof. It stands on concrete foundations 1.0 to 2.3 metres thick.

The building was constructed in the early 1900s when shooting clubs were important gathering points in Vienna's society. It preserves the memory of an era when such clubs served as central social hubs for community and recreational life.

The building serves as a gathering place for shooting clubs and reflects the importance of marksmanship and club culture in Vienna's community life. You can see the spaces where people come together for competitions and socializing.

The building is located near public transportation and is easily accessible. The best time to visit is during regular events and meetings when the facilities are actively in use.

The Schützenhaus housed the movable shutters of the Kaiserbad weir, which a fixed crane lifted into place; the shutters were stored in a depot room inside the building. In 2002 the Austrian postal service issued a stamp showing the building, drawn by Karl Goldammer.
