Looshaus | Michaelerplatz 3 | Wien, 1. Bezirk | Vienna, 1st district

Ausblick eines genialen

Architekten.

Der Blick durch die

charakteristische

Fensterfront geht auf einen

der prominentesten Plätze

Wiens. 1912 ob seiner

schmucklosen Fassade ein

Skandal, gilt das Looshaus

heute als zentrales

Bauwerk der Wiener

Moderne. Inspirationsquelle

für Adolf Loos,

dessen Geburtstag sich

2020 zum 150. Mal jährt,

waren u.a. frühe Chicagoer

Hochhäuser. 1987 von

Raiffeisen gekauft, ist das

Looshaus heute wieder im

Originalzustand zu

bewundern.

Viewpoint of a

brilliant architect.

The view through the

characteristic window

front is possible from one

of the most prominent

places in Vienna. In 1912, it

was scandalous because of

its unadorned façade.

Today, the Looshaus is

considered to be one of

the fundamentally

important buildings of the

Viennese Modern Age.

The sources of inspiration

for Adolf Loos, whose 150 th

birth anniversary is

celebrated in 2020, were

early Chicago skyscrapers,

amongst others. Bought by

Raiffeisen in 1987, the

Looshaus can now be

admired in its original

condition.
