Palace Miller-Aichholz

The Palace Miller-Aichholz (since 1955 Europahaus Vienna) in the 14th district was built in the mid-18th century by Johann Bernhard Fischer vor Erlach for Baron von Grechler.

Later it was owned by the Esterházy family for about 100 years and due to its favorable location near the Vienna Woods it was a meeting place for private hunting parties, in which even Emperor Franz Josef I took part. From 1894, the Miller zu Aichholz family of industrialists and scholars used the property, which they then had to sell to the state in 1938 due to the world economic crisis.

The 2-story, elongated baroque building with garden-side state rooms with a rich collection of pictures is today, together with the extensive park including the largely original „Sonnenfanghaus“ (Orangerie), used for weddings, seminars and festivities of all kinds.
