Hundertwasser
A working example of Hundertwasser’s architechture, and one of the most popular addresses in Vienna. Hundertwasser has turned this apartment block into a lasting imprint on Vienna. The bright colours and his hatred of straight lines leads to something that you may not see the likes of ever again (and it’s free!). You are not allowed into the building so as not to disturb the residents, but looking from outside and sitting on the fountain should suffice for most. On the other side of the street there is an arcade which houses (among tourist shops) the famous toilet, perhaps the finest in the world. It is worth the €1.50 to see what some people may consider absurd, but most genius. Easy access from Schwedenplatz, just take the N tram a couple of stops past Radetzkyplatz. Otherwise its about a 15 minute walk from Wien Mitte Station
