KOTTAS Kräuterhaus on the Freyung 1010 Vienna – since 1795
A cobbled square – one of the most beautiful in Vienna’s city centre. Winding alleyways all around. The clattering of horses’ hooves mingles with the audible hustle and bustle of people enjoying the market stalls, art and strolling around. It has the feel of medieval romance. Takes us back to the time of the Austro-Hungarian monarchy, when the KOTTAS Kräuterhaus opened its doors. Back when the Viennese population visited the ‘Medicinische Kräuter Handlung’ to buy medicinal plants and recipes for the prevention and alleviation of all kinds of ailments.
To this day, the picturesque ambience of the Viennese Freyung is just as well preserved as the original furnishings in the KOTTAS Kräuterhaus. Come and take a trip back in time! You will see – as soon as you enter our herb house, time stands magically still while our staff are all the more eager to give you expert advice.
