About this app
It was the communication hub of the late 19th century. A place of innovation, a symbol of belief in the future of the electric telegraph. The k.k. Telegrafen Centrale was built at 1, Börseplatz between 1870 and 1873, and the historic building is considered the birthplace of the information age in Austria. At the beginning of the 20th century, an extra storey was added on the basis of plans drawn up by the Austrian architect and town planner Eugen Fassbender. This resulted in three imposing extra halls with a total area of 1,600 m2 and a ceiling height of seven metres and provided workspace for hundreds of employees.
The wires began to buzz in this prestigious building around the year 1910. It was the nerve centre of the Danube Monarchy’s state telegraph network and in the heyday of the electric telegraph housed up to 800 officials.
The place where the wires began to buzz with communication at the end of the 19th century, today is the setting for an extraordinary living environment with luxury urban residences, exclusive lofts and commercial units of between 80 and over 500 m².
A team of renowned architects, interior designers and conservation experts is restoring the historic building to its former glory. Its original architectural features are being retained and brought into the 21st century. After comprehensive refurbishment of the whole building, including development of the loft space, the past is inspiring the future. A whole new dimension of living starts now – planned for completion in summer 2019.
