Albert Constantin Swoboda
Albert Constantin Swoboda (born September 3, 1853 in Vienna ; † January 7, 1941 ibid) was an Austrian architect of historicism .
Swoboda studied at the Vienna Technical University (among others with Heinrich Ferstel ) and around 1875 at the Academy of Fine Arts Vienna (Master School Theophil Hansen ), with which he also made a trip to Greece in 1876. From 1878 to 1880 he was employed by the construction company Rudolf Fray (working on the Sankt Marxer Zentralviehmarkt ). Around 1880 he went on a study trip to Odessa , where he also worked professionally. Here and in the Russian Empire he gained experience in the oriental-moorish style.
Swoboda designed numerous houses in Vienna and the Danube Monarchy. He was also involved in furnishing the Vienna Central Baths and was particularly responsible for the detailed planning and interior design of the Vienna Baths. As a specialist in bathing facilities, Swoboda then set up other facilities of this type in Marburg and Pressburg . However, all of these facilities - with the exception of the Wiener Bad - have been torn down over time.
