Around the turn of the last century, Vienna was a huge building site, with many new buildings being constructed on the way to becoming a metropolis. But both this urban reorganisation and the consequences of the coming wars led to the irretrievable loss of many historic buildings and structures. By a lucky coincidence, a valuable collection of old photographs of the inner city, the suburbs and the suburbs has been preserved. They show once again the lost city gates and bastions, palaces, castles and villas, public and private buildings, as they characterised the face of Old Vienna for many generations. A treat for city historians!
