Nordkettenbahn – Cable Railway Station’s Buildings

Höhenstraße 145, 6020 Innsbruck, A
Architecture: Franz Baumann (1927-1928) Builder-owner: Stadt Innsbruck Open to the public: daily. 08.30 – 17:30 hrs (lift operation) Accessibility: Hungerburg cable railway or bus J From 2004-2006 the station’s buildings were adapted functionally and spatially by Schlögl & Süß.

The architect Franz Baumann originally constructed the three "Nordkettenbahnen” cable car station‘s buildings – Hungerburg, Seegrube and Hafelekar – from 1927 – 1928. These belong to the most important modern age buildings in Tyrol. The way the highly sensitive architecture was adapted to match the mountain is still a fine example of alpine building. Especially worthwhile visiting is the Hafelekar mountain station, which is pressed into the rock like a swallow’s nest and provides a view towards the town and Karwendel.

Städtisches Hallenbad (Municipal Indoor Pool)

Amraser Straße 3, 6020 Innsbruck, A
Architecture: Friedrich Konzert (1928) Builder-owner: Stadt Innsbruck Open to the public: during opening hours (entrance fee). In 2014, the roof construction of the indoor swimming pool was completely replaced, the original false ceiling with its numerous stucco elements recreated and the original coloring of the interior reconstructed.

The listed indoor pool was erected in the interwar years according to the plans of the City Building Director Friedrich Konzert, who, among other things, also planned the municipal steam baths in Salurnerstraße. It is characterized, on the one hand, by the functional composition of the structures, which is clearly legible from the outside. On the other hand, many allusions to Secessionism can still be found in the details. The heart of the swimming pool is the two-story hall, which features large windows on three sides and an encircling gallery.
