The history of the guild house Wolfengasse 4
Information and knowledge of the value of the building of the Bauinnung (construction guild) Vienna
It was the year 760 AD, as a "Poumeister" (Baumeister - master builder) called Fanciscuß Sieß of Eisleben built the Vienna Ruprecht's Church and with this his work the first documented surviving evidence of the activity of a builder on Wiener ground rendered.
A historic date for the Vienna building industry, which should be followed in the previous twelve centuries by a myriad of other historically important events. Important, because there were ever and ever again Viennese architects who attracted attention by their yet for a long time world-famous performances. Achievements that have significantly influenced the outer face of the city of Vienna and which as stone witnesses of the ingenuity, the sense of beauty and craftsmanship and technical skill of the builder of bygone eras fascinate an international audience again and again. A tradition that has become a commitment for the present and for the future of structural activities.
Such a commitment of the Vienna building sector to tradition was also the renovation of the in the years 1849-1850 built Vienna guild house, of a beautiful profane example of neo-Gothic style on Vienna 's oldest ground.
In detail work this listed building in Vienna's first district in the Wolfengasse No. 4 from the ground up has been renovated externally and internally and now reveals in new splendor all its architectural beauty of yesteryear.
That this guild house adorns the lettering "Ancient main builder's hut Vienna" is by no means just a matter of chance. Emerged from the ancient Roman and early Christian builder's huts, the Klosterbauschulen (buildings schools of the monasteries) and Bauzünften (construction guilds), having arisen alongside the Dombauhütten (cathedral builder's huts), the builder's huts can be considered as the forerunners of the organization of the construction industry. Its organizational and legal basis, the so-called Bauhütten orders (builder's huts orders), regulated, among other things, the behavior and life of masters, journeymen and apprentices. Moreover, the handicraft arts have been transmitted orally from builder's hut to builder's hut..
In the Central European cultural area, there were four main builder's huts. Namely, the at Strasbourg, Berne, Cologne and Vienna.
Now regarding the main builder's hut in St. Stephen's Cathedral in Vienna, so was on it on 20 February 1637 the union of all master stonemasons and master masons and their journeymen decided.
So was also the now refurbished Guildhall middle of the 19th Century built by the Guild of civil architects and master stonemasons. In its boardroom some historical interesting memorabilia are kept: so, e.g., two guild boards, which could be described as a precursor of the modern form of a membership evidence.
In the course of the carried out renovation measures but also structural sins have been mad good again, which were committed by the foreign dedicated use of so many guild premises. So was, e.g., the old journeymen hall by relocating a flat with its Gothic arches uncovered again. Today it serves as a club room for meetings in smaller groups.
The guild house is to see in connection with the hotel across the street as an ensemble, and so Wolfengasse presents itself with its Gothic measurement system in full structural beauty, by which also a piece of old-town romance is kept.
The history of Wolfengasse 4
The Wolfengasse 4 is located in one of the oldest districts of Vienna.
Originally it was located outside the walls of the former castle of the Romans.
It was not until 1200 the district was protected by a new wall.
For a long time remained Wolfengasse nameless and was still in 1439 simply as Gäßlein (small alley) denominated.
1695 the alley became "Weißes Wolfen Gäßlein" and since 1862 Wolfengasse.
From 1300 to 1361, the Cistercian Abbey Baumgarten in Upper Austria was owner of the property.
1457 the house became a Burse - home for students (till 1546)
Later the owner was a horse and cart entrepreneur
1801 an innkeeper bought the house
1848 bought the "United Guild of the Lords Civil architects and Master stonemasons in Vienna" the property - Purchase price 68,000 guilders and 100 ducats
1849 the house was demolished, and there were built two four-story buildings
In 1944 destroyed and plundered
1953 reconstruction
1978 renovated under guild master Hofstädter.
1981 under IN (Innungsmeister - guild master) Hutschinski followed the relocation of the offices of the National (Viennese) Guild from the Rathausstraße 21 in Wolfengasse 4
2000 - 2001 - Renewal under IM Grün

The NHS Values Summit brings together a diverse range of people and perspectives to create a greater understanding of how people’s differences, social status and cultural expectations can affect their experiences of health and care.
It challenges and inspires people to think about the role of ethical leadership in improving the health and wellbeing of local communities, staff and patients and how the NHS can increase the social value of its activities.
Welcoming representatives from health and social care, alongside more than 20 partners from the voluntary and community sector, this event (in Leeds, Yorkshire) was a template for future NHS Values Summits, which will be held twice a year in different locations across the country. Each event will explore a different theme relating to equality, health inequalities and human rights. The next gathering will take place in May 2013.
This was a challenge to get the flash set up properly. I wanted enough diffuse light to not produce highlights on the pencil lead, but directional light from outside the frame to cast a shadow from the pencil. I ended up holding the mirror from this photo to bounce some of the flash's light .

I could get used to this! Sat outside, glass of wine and a game of scrabble :)) I'm also beginning to forget how to cook, as meals have been salads and what I call grazing food, or simple tapas type things.

I used to live alone before I knew you.
I've seen your flag on the marble arch,

"All across the state people are protesting a proposed coal export
terminal"- KHQ
TV News Station
"Environmentalists and other opponents of the terminal,
many of whom were dressed in red T-shirts, dominated public
testimony before a crowd of about 400."- Spokesman
Review
If Earned Media is any indication of of where we stand in the fight for
climate and environmental justice and a sustainable future against coal
exports, than the tide has turned in favor of activists and the
communities we strive to protect. The coal export battle is truly being
fought in the court of public opinion. Giant-sized sympathetic visuals
conveying the values we stand for and what threatens them, and an
engaging experience that helped communities feel a sense of shared power
were all prominent in the earned mainstream media coverage in Spokane
that included two television spots and the front page on their local
paper. The iconic imagery resonates so well that those in a position to
decide the regulations and even the coal export proponents were enamored
with it, excited, and joyful as they took pictures of and with it. We're
grateful to our supporters through whose support we're able to make sure
this critical flank of the fight is present to amplify, inspire, and
build engagement. If you are long to be a part of vibrant community
working to bring the world in closer harmony with your values, than join
Backbone Campaign, our
allies, and collaborators to build a powerful progressive movement.
Special thanks is owed to Spokane
Coalition Builders, and Occupy Spokane whose
dedicated engagement in their community and continued collaboration have
helped to reinvigorate engagement in the NW. The Power Past Coal
Coalition and Sierra Club have dedicated a ton of resources and energy
to mobilize the community to speak out at the hearings, with many other
community members from across the state and beyond sharing their talents
and gifts to make Fossil Fuel Foolishness a thing of the past.
