We suggest checking the exact location on a map.
House rules
- No smoking indoors.
- No alcohol on the premises.
- Wear a mask in indoor spaces and during performances.
- Adhere to staff directions and signage.
Accessibility
The venue consists of two separate areas: A former wire rope factory (“Oststation”), and an adjacent allotment plot. To bridge the difference in level between the plots where they immediately connect, a temporary staircase was built. There is however also a ground-level connection, which leads into the allotment plot through the back.
If you arrive via GeiereckstraĂźe, please note that the pedestrian bridge is not barrier-free.
The entrance and exit, most of the allotment plot, the performance program, as well as the main hall of Oststation are at ground level, albeit not entirely free of thresholds. We are using the cellar and mezzanine of Oststation as additional exhibition spaces, each of which can only be accessed by stairs.
We regret that we could not make the entire venue completely barrier-free. Aside from what was mentioned, there may be additional parts of the exhibition space that can’t be accessed or are hard to access in a wheelchair. However, we want to accommodate everybody, so please don’t hesitate to get in touch (contact@haus.wien or simply address our staff on site) if you have any concerns or questions regarding your visit – we will do our best to find a suitable solution.
Health and Safety
Your health and safety are of great importance to us. Aside from the measures against Covid-19 listed below, we will be implementing a variety of safety precautions, such as a limit on the number of visitors inside certain spaces. We ask you to follow staff directions and signage in this regard.
We are making efforts to balance the flow of visitors. Bear in mind that there will be a maximum of 100 visitors allowed inside the premises at any given time.

This is a required measure against the spread of Covid-19.
