The Weyringergasse is a street in the 4th Vienna district, Wieden . It is named after the seed dealer, pleasure and ornamental gardener Josef Weyringer (* 1799, † February 25, 1869).

history

Weyringergasse 16-18

The alley appeared as early as 1700 in the plan of Leander Anguissola and Johann Jakob Marinoni as a simple dirt road as the upper delimitation of the former "Weyringer sand stalls". After the district was subdivided into parcels, systematic development began in 1821. Until 1894 there was also a Weyringergasse in Vienna's 11th district of Simmering , which was renamed Fuchsröhrengasse after Simmering was incorporated in 1892 to avoid multiple names.

Location and characteristics

The straight street extends the Kolschitzkygasse beyond the Favoritenstraße , towards the east and connects it with the Prinz Eugen-Straße . The building is relatively uniform and consists mainly of four to five-storey apartment buildings from the third quarter of the 19th century.
