Karlsplatz Metro Station – Otto Wagner – 1899
The Karlsplatz Metro Station was without a doubt the highlight of my trip to Vienna. This pavilion is an icon of Art Nouveau (or Jugendstil as it is known in Austria) and was very high up on my list of buildings to see.
The pavilion pictured above is one of two that stand opposite each other. Once ticket offices for the station below the identical pavilions are now used as a Wagner museum and a cafe, a very nice spot to sit and admire the building.
For the love of buildings
