The story

Wiener Seife has made handmade soaps since 2006, around 70 varieties from shaving soap to hair soap, without palm oil and without plastic. The manufactory with workshop store and a small soap museum is in Favoriten, the flagship store in the city centre.

Soap boiling is an old Viennese craft that had almost disappeared. Sonja Baldauf and her team show how oil, lye and scent become a block that has to mature for weeks before it fits in the hand. A visit in which all the senses take part.

A good soap needs six weeks. Like a good holiday.

What you experience

A manufactory visit with a look into the boiling room and the museum, on request a hands-on workshop in which every guest pours their own soap and takes it home. As an excursion into a Viennese neighbourhood outside the centre or as a stop on the Made-in-Vienna tour (shop in the 1st district).
