Rudolfsheim-Fünfhaus

Rudolfsheim-Fünfhaus, Vienna's 15th district, lies west of the city centre in a central location bordered by several neighbouring districts. The Bezirksmuseum Rudolfsheim-Fünfhaus and Kirche Maria vom Siege document the area's history and religious heritage, while Märzpark and Auer-Welsbach-Park provide green space. The district contains numerous historical monuments and churches that reflect its long development, though its appeal to visitors largely depends on specific interests in local history and architecture.
