history

On January 26th, 2016 Wiener Neustadt in the industrial quarter was presented by Mayor Klaus Schneeberger and Governor Erwin Pröll as the location of the State Exhibition 2019 , under the working title "Feet - Rims - Wings" a show was planned and prepared that shows the development of mobility by the Habsburgs to show today. Before that, the state exhibition 2015 with the title "Ötscher: Reich" took place in the Mostviertel , the Lower Austrian state exhibition 2017 took place in the Waldviertel . In addition to Wiener Neustadt, Baden had also applied as a location.

A total of 25 million euros was planned by the state of Lower Austria , the federal government, the city of Wiener Neustadt and funds from the European Union, which are to be invested primarily in the repair and expansion of the two main locations.

During excavations in advance of the renovation work for the state exhibition, archaeologists came across two medieval graves in August 2016.

Among other things, the Wiener Neustadt casemates are being completely renovated. The result of a call for tenders was presented in November 2016 under the title “Casemates and New Gallery Wiener Neustadt”. A jury selected that of the architectural office Bevk Perovic from Ljubljana from all the project submissions. The groundbreaking for this project took place in July 2017 with Governor Johanna Mikl-Leitner . During the restoration of the casemates for the state exhibition, parts of a kennel wall were exposed. In addition, one of the corner towers of the city wall is being revitalized and made accessible.

The winning project for the renovation of the city museum and the exhibition church of St. Peter an der Sperr was also presented in November 2016; it comes from the Wiener Neustädter architecture office koup architekten / arch.c schmidt-ginzkey . The mayor's garden in front of the museum, the forecourt and the entrance portal have all been redesigned. In addition, new passageways and crossings between the former city museum and the museum church of St. Peter an der Sperr were created and the monastery corridors were revitalized. Historic stones and wall decorations were exposed and old windows restored. The museum was named Museum St. Peter an der Sperr .

In October 2018, a steam locomotive 12.10 was transported from the Strasshof Railway Museum to Korneuburg for restoration; it was originally supposed to be exhibited in Wiener Neustadt in 2019. In the course of the exhibition, a driverless mini-bus is to be tested on a given circuit in the city center.

In February 2019, the country reported a total investment (for infrastructure) of € 33 million. Around 300,000 visitors were expected from the mayor. The 100,000th visitor was welcomed in July 2019 and the 200,000th guest in September 2019. A total of 322,181 visitors were recorded.

In May 2019 the Filmarchiv Austria published the DVD Edition Niederösterreich: Wiener Neustadt und Umgebung , a collection of film recordings over a period of eight decades, on the occasion of the regional exhibition as part of the series Austria in historical film documents .

In the Kasematten Wiener Neustadt the story of mobility was told, with Wiener Neustadt and its relationships with the region on a small scale and with the world on a large scale. In the Wiener Neustadt City Museum with St. Peter an der Sperr , Wiener Neustadt was presented in the mirror of world history, including the work of Emperor Friedrich III. and Maximilian I. On the basis of influential personalities, it was told how the former imperial residence developed into an industrial city and an innovation location.

In addition to the Austro-Daimler Sascha designed by Ferdinand Porsche in 1922 , the Corvinus beaker was also shown.

In addition to these two exhibition venues, the Theresian Military Academy gave guided tours into the former imperial residence, and the officer training program since it was founded by Maria Theresa .

The Neukloster Abbey also offered guided tours. The planned renovation work began at the beginning of 2018; 2.5 million euros were earmarked for this by autumn 2018. Among other things, barrier-free access to the church was built, as well as a footpath from the monastery garden to the military academy and a “room-in-room” solution made of glass for visiting the library. In addition, the east facade was renovated and the cross chapel and the baroque refectory were restored.

The Ungarfeld small hydropower plant was adapted to a show power plant in the course of the state show.
