Stadtvilla Eisenstadt
To mark the centenary of the day on which Eisenstadt was effectively designated the capital of Burgenland on 30 April 1925, this project explores the city’s twentieth-century history – particularly its political, social and cultural development – and renders it tangible through a publication and a new museum.

The museum is housed in the Stadtvilla Eisenstadt, a former doctor’s villa at Pfarrgasse 20, built in 1950, whose architectural qualities and fine detailing shape the exhibition’s dramaturgy, staging and interpretation. I curated and designed the permanent exhibition which takes the mid-twentieth century as its central point of reference, with carefully placed flashbacks illuminating the conditions that preceded – and the transformations that reshaped – the cityscape.
