Meidling

A market district around the Meidlinger Hauptstraße

Meidling lies south-west of the Gürtel, around the Meidling railway station and the Meidlinger Hauptstraße. It is a working district that has gained cafes and small restaurants around its market.

The Meidlinger Markt is the centre of local life, with stalls, farmers on Fridays and Saturdays, and restaurants.

Schloss Hetzendorf and its park lie in the south-west, and the Theresienbad, a swimming hall of 1930, is an example of Red Vienna municipal building.
