Kulturfabrik Hainburg

The Kulturfabrik Hainburg is located directly on the banks of the Danube, just a few steps from the boat landing stage and not far from Hainburg’s old town. The so-called Danube building was erected in 1847 as part of the tobacco factory, whose history dates back to the founding of the tobacco manufactory in 1724. After production ceased in 1992, the building stood empty. From 2005, the Province of Lower Austria had it renovated and converted into an event centre. In 2011, the Kulturfabrik was one of the venues for the Lower Austrian Provincial Exhibition.

Steel columns from its factory days and views of the Donau-Auen National Park now characterise the atmosphere. The hall can be flexibly arranged, with row seating for concerts as well as round tables for festive evenings; the foyer, café and terrace complement the venue.

The concerts of the Hainburger Haydngesellschaft have been an integral part of the city’s cultural life here for years. The programme includes productions such as “Der Halter”, concert evenings such as “Slawische Fantasie”, “Peter und der Wolf” for young audiences and Advent music. The venue is easily accessible from Vienna via the S7.
