Frederick the Fair donated the original building on the site to the city council in 1316 and has been owned by the city ever since. It was the site of the execution of Franz III. Nádasdy on 30 April 1671 in the wake of the Magnate conspiracy. On 26 May 1848, during Vienna's March Revolution, it housed meetings of the People's Security Committee, as memorialised by a plaque on the building. Since 1871 Sankt Salvator has been in the care of the Old Catholic Church of Austria, which was founded by those rejecting the doctrine of papal infallibility, though that new religious community was only recognised by the Austrian state in 1877. The Altes Rathaus last housed a meeting of Vienna's city council on 20 June 1885, with the first at the Neue Rathaus three days later. The Altes Rathaus now houses the municipal offices for the 1st and 8th districts of the city, the inner city's local history museum (Bezirksmuseum Innere Stadt) and the Documentation Centre of Austrian Resistance. In 1893, it was the site of the founding of the Allgemeiner Österreichischer Frauenverein.

Zero stars just for not accepting cards. Incredibly irresponsible behavior!

We were invited to this beautiful room - the Festsaal - for an official event. It was a real privilege to be there. The catering was very good, but external, so can vary, depending on the booking.

The rotunda composed of domestic sandstone, designed by the court architect Giovanni Salucci, turned out to be a monument for the popular Queen. Since the beginning of the 20th century the Sepulchral Chapel is publicly available. Russian Orthodox church services are still celebrate today.
