Spittelau incinerator

The Spittelau incineration plant was built in 1989 according to the project of Friedensreich Hundertwasser. All the projects of the architect were very expensive for the state, and this object is no exception. The plant decorates expensive decoration in the form of mirrored gold balls on pipes, which perform not only the function of decor, but also are effective filters that remove heavy metals, sulfur dioxide and acid from the smoke.

Hundertwasser agreed to work on the project only after he was promised strict compliance with environmental safety measures at the plant. The result is a real palace, which is interesting to come with the children.

The plant disposes of more than 265,000 tons of garbage every year. In addition, it performs an important function - it provides heat to 60 thousand apartments in Vienna.

In the lobby of the plant, exhibitions are periodically organized and interesting events are held! The architectural complex is an important part of the city’s landscape, which inspires all creative people who come to Vienna. To visit the Vienna Incineration Plant, you need to drive to the Spittelau Banchst metro station.
