Located in the centre of Vienna’s old town, the Reitersaal in the OeKB building offers a stylish backdrop for your event. A monumental sculpture by Dominik Fernkorn and a ceiling made of 14,600 separate panes of glass and completely refurbished gives the hall a very unique atmosphere.

A Hall with a history
The Reitersaal in the OeKB building on Strauchgasse was originally the inner courtyard of the Montenuovo Palace featuring the Georgsbrunnen by the famous sculptor Anton Dominik Fernkorn. In 1871 the Anglo-Österreichische Bank purchased the building and had the inner courtyard covered with 14,600 separate panes of glass so that it could be used as a bank hall.
At the beginning of the 1990s, the current owner of the hall, OeKB, had the glass ceiling completely refurbished true to the original design. A horizontal dimming system allows the hall to be used no matter the time of day.
