Welcome to 1220 Vienna

The 22nd district, also known as "Donaustadt", is located to the east of the city centre of Vienna and is Vienna's most populous district. The 22nd district covers almost a quarter of the total area of Vienna's municipal territory and is characterised by its comprehensive appearance. In addition to numerous green spaces and recreational areas, which make up almost 50% of the total area of the 22nd district, there are numerous large housing estates and individual housing estates, such as the Donau City district, which is characterised by office and high-rise residential quarters.

Historically, the 22nd district was created in its present form in 1954. In the course of time, many housing estates developed there, in 1979, for example, the extraterritorial area of the UN was created and in recent years the office towers of the "DC Towers" have opened there, of which Tower 1 is the tallest building in Austria to date. Today, the 22nd district is an up-and-coming district with good infrastructural connections, many recreational areas such as the old Danube and the urban district of Donaucity, which is characterised by office buildings and is very easy to reach with the underground lines 1 and 2. Vienna's largest shopping centre, the Donauzentrum, located in the 22nd district, is also particularly well-known, with its endless rows of shops, restaurants and cafés.

UNO City

The Vienna International Center - more commonly known as "UNO City" - is one of the three official headquarters of the United Nations (UN). Built between 1973 and 1979 according to the plans of the Austrian architect Johann Staber, the UNO City has developed into a major economic factor for Vienna. In addition to the approximately 5,000 employees of the UN and its sub-organisations who live here permanently, the regular and numerous conferences have generated a considerable number of tourists. UNO-City can generally be seen as a pioneer of the urban development of Donau-City; a rather rural area on the outskirts of the city at that time into a metropolitan and international district of Vienna.
