MY SIMMERING

Community buildings, football stars and the last executioner of Vienna
The 11th district of Vienna is probably not the first choice for visitors to Vienna. But this former suburb offers a long and interesting history. As one of the centres of Red Vienna fought over in the interwar period, the district is now a popular residential area.
If you would like to see Vienna off the beaten tourist track, I look forward to showing you the Simmering where I grew up.
