Gerhard Strasser has been a fixture in the Viennese real estate world for many years. With a keen sense for special places and a clear vision, he and Karl Weilhartner have breathed new life into the historic Kipferlhaus. The historic building has been transformed into a vibrant mix of shared offices, high-quality services, and select retail outlets—an inspiring symbiosis of tradition and modernity.

But one challenge remained: the two-story vaulted cellar. Architecturally impressive, but economically unusable. Strasser sought an idea that would do justice to the atmosphere and the potential of the space. The answer: wineBANK.

“This space used to be difficult to utilize. With wineBANK, we have not only created economic value but also a vibrant space that inspires and connects people,” says Strasser. And its success proves him right: Today, wineBANK Vienna is an exclusive meeting place for wine lovers, connoisseurs, and networkers—one that is stylish, elegant, and fully booked for years to come.

For Gerhard Strasser, the project is a labor of love—and a complete success. “I’m proud to be part of this story. It shows what’s possible when you don’t just ‘use’ spaces but give them a soul.”
