The gasometers in Vienna-Simmering are four former gas tanks from 1896 that have been preserved on the facade. They were revitalized in an extensive renovation from 1999 to 2001 and now have an entertainment center, several apartments, a student residence and an event hall. The gasometers were part of the Simmering gas works to compensate for supply fluctuations in the Vienna gas network. Technically, they were designed as low-pressure reservoirs for town gas obtained from coal. The Simmering gasworks was one of two urban gasworks at the turn of the century, along with the Leopoldau gasworks.
