Bezirksmuseum Favoriten

The Bezirksmuseum Favoriten covers the history of Vienna's 10th district, with collections spanning prehistory, geology, and everyday life of earlier eras. Highlights include the original 1710 sandstone figures from the Spinnerin am Kreuz landmark, exhibits on the Wienerberger brickworks that supplied bricks for Vienna's Ringstraße monumental buildings, and material on the Wienerberg water tower. The museum traces the district's development since its founding in 1874 and offers guided tours by appointment to nearby sites including the Johanneskirche in Unterlaa and the cemetery memorial grove in Waldmüllerpark.
