Müllverbrennungsanlage Spittelau (Spittelau incineration plant) by Friedensreich Hundertwasser, 1971
Spittelauer Lände
Vienna, September 2017
“A popular photographic motif in Vienna is the Spittelau waste incineration plant, whose façade was redesigned and given its present colorful, irregular structures by eco-architect Friedensreich Hundertwasser following a major fire in 1989. Since then, the former utility building has combined the topics of waste, energy and art in a fascinating way. On a tour of the plant, visitors get an insight into Vienna's waste, recycling and disposal system, as well as the environmentally friendly generation of thermal heat and hot water.” (In Vienna, energy is also art, Vienna)
