Hetzendorf, Vienna — Area Guide & Where to Stay
Hetzendorf is a quarter of Vienna, and the Kirche am Wege is the building that gives it a landmark of its own.
About Hetzendorf
Where to stay in Hetzendorf
Where you base yourself shapes the visit — here's the character of each area.
Hetzendorf keeps to houses. Anyone booking here trades the range of central Vienna for a quarter where the Kirche am Wege is the nearest thing to a landmark, which suits a long stay far more than a short one. The Emil-Behring-Weg runs through it.
Nothing here is built with short visits in mind.
About Hetzendorf
What are the main landmarks in Hetzendorf?
The list is short. The Kirche am Wege gives Hetzendorf its one building of general interest, a church rather than a monument, standing among the ordinary streets that make up the rest of the quarter. One other entry survives: the Schweinemastanstalt Emil-Behring-Weg.
Vienna keeps its set pieces well away from here.
What is the history of Hetzendorf?
No founding year reaches the record. What Hetzendorf carries instead is a pairing: the Kirche am Wege on one hand and the Schweinemastanstalt Emil-Behring-Weg on the other, a church and a working building standing for the two sides of a suburban quarter. Vienna supplies the rest of the frame.
Charters, mergers and first mentions are all absent from what survives about Hetzendorf.
Where is Hetzendorf?
Hetzendorf forms part of Vienna, a residential quarter whose named points are the Kirche am Wege and the Emil-Behring-Weg.
