history

City Park Leberberg (2015)

The Leberberg takes its name from the word Leb (er) , Middle High German lê (who) , which means "grave mound, grave, hill".

The Leberberg, which was previously hardly populated, formed a Viennese urban expansion area in the 1990s, as the central elements of which were the city parks of Leberberg and Hofgartel. The Roman Catholic parish church of St. Benedikt am Leberberg was built from 1996 to 1997 according to plans by Wolfgang Zehetner , Walter Zschokke and Walter Michl . During its construction in particular, the Leberberg district, which was densely populated and poor transport connections, was considered a poor residential area.
