About this tour
This session covers Kunst Haus Wien, a gallery dedicated to the same architect behind the nearby Hundertwasserhaus. You see the gallery's own uneven facade and then the courtyard, tiled in matching irregular patterns. It is a companion session to the residential building nearby.
I stay outside the gallery throughout, explaining the connection between both buildings and the artist's wider philosophy. Questions come in comparing the two sites, and I answer them as we go. A short note on the gallery's current exhibitions follows once we finish.
This suits anyone who has already covered the Hundertwasserhaus and wants the fuller picture. It also works well as a short add-on session.
Included
- Live video walk with a local guide

-
Your questions 7 min

-
A short list to keep 3 min
Before you go, the guide sums up with a few things worth remembering: a dish to try: Tafelspitz and Leopoldstadt, worth a slower look.
Good to know

- Times are shown in Vienna time, so check the time where you are before you book.
- The session is not recorded, and recording it yourself is not allowed. Feel free to take your own notes.
- Ask questions any time, out loud or in the chat. The guide will pause to answer.
- Sessions run in small groups, up to 8 people, so there is room for everyone to ask something.
