Mission & Vision

Our mission is the preservation and sustainable development of Lower Austria's architectural heritage. We view architectural culture as the foundation of lived history and social cohesion. Through independent professional advice and targeted funding programs, we aim to empower municipalities, private individuals, and communities to properly restore historic buildings, implement pioneering projects, and thereby contribute to strengthening the regional living environment.

Target groups

Our services are aimed at municipalities in Lower Austria that plan and implement the protection of townscapes, the restoration of ensembles, and cultural monuments; private owners of historic buildings and wine cellar lanes who require professional advice and funding for preservation; institutions, schools, and associations that promote architectural culture and carry out projects within the UNESCO World Heritage Site Wachau; as well as experts from architecture, monument preservation, and construction who collaborate in interdisciplinary working groups.
