History & character
From Benedictine Abbey to Hospital District
The name Michelbeuern originates from the Benedictine abbey Michaelbeuern near Salzburg. In 1072, the properties were mentioned as 'Hof zu Waring', extending over parts of present-day Währing. With the construction of the Linienwall in 1704, Michelbeuern was separated from Währing and incorporated into Alservorstadt. Until the mid-19th century, development was sparse, with the Brünnlbad and Brünnlmühle located in the south. The k.k. privileged steam engine factory was founded in 1836, and between 1848 and 1853, the Lower Austrian State Asylum was built, which remained until 1974. The construction of the New General Hospital led to the demolition of the historic building.

Real building heights (official Vienna building model, computed from the BEV laser scan in the surroundings), sun hours and shadows from sun position and geometry. How much of it reaches you also depends on orientation and windows. Terrain is included, from the official elevation model out to 12 km: a mountain to the south takes the winter sun just as the house opposite does. Where the sun only grazes a ridge, the figure remains an approximation. In Vienna the terrain rarely matters: ten minutes in the Innere Stadt, and just as little at the Döbling vineyards, where the slope lies to the north-west and never touches the southern sun. It only tells in the Wienerwald valleys, at Kalksburg a good two hours on 21 December.
