Good and a beautiful place for people who like modern art. A bit funky. You can see the artist had a brilliant vision. Good place for tourists. Best part for me was an apartment from which a tree had grown. You can't go in the apartments but you can go to the store where you can buy different things as souvenirs. Bus station is very near. Loved the fountain in front of the building. It's a great place to take photos for memories and also for art photography.
Just be careful because the floor is dizzy and not flat.
Cheers from Croatia.

Ok, let's be clear about what can you expect: this is an private apartment house in a unique, unusual style. If you aren't particularly interested in architecture, skip it, as you can only go around and view the exterior, front and back and the surrounding area that is similarly arranged to match the the house's design.
You can buy souvenirs in a small mall near the house or have coffee or lunch in the restaurant. The food there is ok and prices average.

A must see if you're in Vienna. This place is a short walk from Landstrasse Wienitte station and the walk takes you through some interesting and pretty back roads.

There's plenty of souvenir shops inside the Hundertwasserhaus village with a couple of things to eat too.

The Hundertwasser house is a perfect example for building planning in an extraordinary way. A simple apartment house built inside a piece of art. Beautiful combination of human nature and our rapidly growing world. It's messy and colorful architecture and the presence of nature as a part of the building reminds me of the place and mission of human being to be the part of our planet. I must recommend it for everyone who loves nature and sees no contrast between artificial and natural. A beautiful part of Vienna as a city and our mother nature which surrounds around it.

I think one should visit this place after Hundertwasser museum as the museum will provide you an insider and overview of what Hundertwasser House is. The architecture of the place is undoubtedly worth a visit as it is really unique and representing part of the movement in Austria during the 20th century.

It's a cute little village... While it's crowded with tourists, I actually enjoyed the simple art on the building.. It did make a big difference ... I just felt bad for the residents, not sure if I could accept these many visitors everyday in front of my apartment!

Nice crazy building where nothing is square
The architect is famous in Austria (his name is Hundertwasser)
There are nice temporary exhibitions and a permanent one. The last temporary one I have seen was about street photography.
It is possible to have lunch and/or drinks in the restaurant at the ground floor.

This place is not maintained so it doesn't look like most photos posted. Color is vanishing, dark dirt instead
It is just 2 simple facade of 50m
Watching a movie in the Cafe located there won't help much since it is 100% in German without subtitles
Cannot believe that it is a recommended place to visit.

Unfortunately, the maintenance of the building is inexistent and you can see that from the color of the walls, which is fading, with some dark spots all above them. Our guide told us that the artist himself didn't want to modify the building in any case, so that's why it looks like that. She told us that the you can't visit the inside, because people actually live in there. In my opinion, it's not something that you absolutely have to visit, especially when it's cold, because all the trees are leafless and make the area even more depressed and abandoned.

If you have plenty of time in Vienna you can visit this unique building and the neighborhood.

It isn't much more than a particular colorful set of apartments, but it's very different from the rest of the city.

Avoid the surrounding gift shops as they are quite pricier than others.

I (Eli) love art in Mosaic, imagine when I saw that in Vienna there is practically an entire building made by Mosaic pieces, including a small village and a Shopping mall.

This is Hundertwasserhaus, a apartment house located walking distance from two metro stations that was built after the idea and concept of Austrian artist Friedensreich Hundertwasser with architect Joseph Krawina as a co-author. The artist focused in architecture, combined an unique style mixing art in mosaic, fun colors and gardening giving harmony with nature and man to this cool village and you will find not only a building apartment but a village that included cafes, souvenirs stores, fountain and even a small shopping mall that even the bathroom is totally different and colourful decorated with mosaic tiles.

We would suggest you check the many pictures and their website before to take a decision to visit the place, because we spent a couple of days in Vienna and we had a spare time to go there and visit since we liked the idea to visit a different place in Vienna and a different neighbourhood than the touristic and historic Old town, but if you just have time enough to visit the main attractions that the city has to offer you might not be interested on this kind of architecture. However overall we spent a great time there.

Eli: 5 / Serge: 4+

Recommended: Yes, fun village and mall in a different and unique area of Old town Vienna.

Interesting place to visit in Vienna. Genius mind of Friedensreich Hundertwasser (Stowasser) created this modern masterpiece in stone and paint. Place not for perfectionist :) broken lines and no symmetry. The opposite for the architecture we are used to. Please read about this place beforehand, it helps noticing the details and understanding philosophy of the artist. P.S stairs from the attached photo are from tourist store across the street, a replica of real ones

Very nice from the outside. The whole architecture by Hundertwasser is just amazing. It's a must see if you are in Vienna. You gotta pay for going inside. But in my opinion the more important part is the outside facade which you don't have to pay for to see it. Sadly on the other side of the street there are constructions going on. So it's difficult to get a great shot.

Wow. What can I say about this place. If this is how social housing works successfully why we aren't we all doing it. It's certainly a tourist trap, souvenirs and cafes were a bit overpriced but if it all as a result of the social housing experience I suppose it's OK. Great place to wander, have something to eat and look at the wonderful exterior decoration.

A very interesting concept to architecture. The architect Hunderwasser is a proponent of sustainability and natural living, encouraging lively architecture rather than modern yet sterile ones. A museum detailing his work and life is located nearby (less than 10 minutes walk away). The museum is called Kunst Haus Wien. Museum Hundertwasser. Definitely worth checking it out.
