Who were the Brick Bohemians? Where did they come from? What was life like for them in Vienna? What effect did they have on politics and urban development? And what does the firm of Wienerberger have to do with them? The exhibition Wien und die Ziegelböhm examines the period that gave the name of workers’ district to Favoriten, shows how this paved the way to modern Vienna, and casts light on the people behind the story.
