The Imperial-Royal Post Office Savings Bank was built between 1904 and 1912 by Otto Wagner, one of the most eminent architects of the beginning of the twentieth century. He also designed the interior architecture and furniture.

Compared with other buildings dating from that time – such as the former Imperial-Royal War Ministry on the opposite side of the Ring Boulevard – Wagner’s style seems consistently modern and functional.

The façade is covered with weatherproof granite and marble, and also aluminum – new for its time – is used inside and out: for example, on the railings and the figurines on the roof, the fittings on the door and the warm-air dispensers in the hall.

The hall with its teller’s counters is open during the hours of the Post Office Savings Bank, which today is a private bank and is freely accessible.
