You can only take a look on the outside of the building, as people are living here.

On the other side of the street, you can find Hundertwasser Village. A little shopping center, created in the style of Hundertwasserhaus, which features several (souvenir) shops, a bar and a small “village square”. It’s nice to walk through, but it can also be quite busy. ...... (follow the instructions below for accessing the rest of this article).
