Banks – Part 5

“Michaeler Haus”
1 st District, Michaelerplatz 3
Architect: Adolf Loos

This iron and concrete skeleton construction, built between 1900 and 1910, was the subject of controversy among the Viennese public and imperial court. The former exclusive fashion business “Goldmann & Salatsch” is now used as a bank after its conscientious re-novation.
Hermann Czech with his profound knowledge of the house, offers guidance into and through the building.
