The Wiener Konzerthaus in Vienna was designed by Fellner & Helmer in cooperation with Ludwig Baumann. The article does not name a client, and the Wiener Konzerthausgesellschaft runs the house. The infobox and text agree on construction from 1911 to 1913 and an opening on October 19, 1913.

The article says the original building was Art Nouveau, parts were lost in later renovations and it was reconstructed from original sketches in the 1970s. It names no materials. The building measures about 230 by 131 feet (70 by 40 m) and originally had three soundproofed halls for simultaneous concerts.

The Großer Saal seats 1,840, the Mozartsaal 704 and the Schubertsaal 336, and the Berio Saal holds up to 400. The Rieger organ was installed in 1913. A complete renovation ran from 1997 to 2000. Resident ensembles include the Vienna Symphony and Klangforum Wien. The article gives no hours.
