Rudolf-Sigmund-Hof

1929-1931 von Wilhelm und Karl Schön erbauter Gemeindebau in Gersthof, einem Bezirksteil von Währing, dem 18. Bezirk von Wien

 

Rudolf-Sigmund-Hof in Währing, the 18th district of Vienna is a so-called Gemeindebau, which is the German word for "municipality building" (pl. Gemeindebauten). It was built from 1921 to 1931 and is one of many Gemeindebauten that were erected during the Red Vienna period "between 1918 and 1934, when the Social Democratic Workers' Party of Austria (SDAP) maintained almost unilateral political control over Vienna". en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Red_Vienna
