FAQs

No. The Hundertwasser House is an inhabited Gemeindebau (municipal housing); interior visits are not possible. If you want to see Hundertwasser's interior design, visit the nearby Museum Hundertwasser in the Kunst Haus Wien.

Address: Kegelgasse 34–38 / Löwengasse 41–43, 1030 Vienna. The quickest way is tram 1 to "Hetzgasse", then a few minutes on foot. Alternatively, take the U3 to "Rochusgasse" or the U3/U4 to "Wien Mitte–Landstraße" and walk from there.

You don't need a ticket to see the outside; the facade can be viewed at any time from the public street. Opposite is the Hundertwasser Village (a shopping arcade, usually open during the day). The Museum Hundertwasser has its own admission prices and opening hours.

Photos of the exterior are common. Popular angles are at the corner of Kegelgasse/Löwengasse and along Kegelgasse. Please respect the residents' privacy (don't photograph entrances, balconies or windows; drones only in line with local rules).

Directly opposite: Hundertwasser Village. A few minutes' walk away: Kunst Haus Wien – Museum Hundertwasser. For a nice walk back toward the city center, follow the Danube Canal.
