Federal Pathologic-Anatomical Museum

Vienna Austria

Tag It:

The Narrenturm was built under Emperor Joseph II. as the first psychiatric hospital (architect: Isidore Canevale). After only 17 months' building, the cylindrical Narrenturm with its inner courtyards was opened to house mentally ill people from Vienna, Lower Austria and the Burgenland.

Commonly, the round five-storey building was also called "Emperor Joseph's ring cake".
