Gasometer-City

On the right you can see a part of two of the four former gasometers in Simmering, Vienna's 3rd district. They were revitalized in an extensive reconstruction from 1999 to 2001, leaving only the facades unchanged, and now feature an entertainment center, several apartments, a students' hostel and an event hall.

Since the concept of a shopping mall did not prove successful, a transformation into the largest Music City in Central Europe took place by 2013. At its center are music schools and stores, including the Vienna Pop Academy, where young people are trained to become pop musicians in their free time, the Jam Music Lab, a jazz-pop conservatory for budding professional musicians. A concert hall offers the possibility of on-site performances.
