An innovative project is emerging in Vienna: Starting March 2026, "Lügner City" is set to open as a sustainable shopping center for handmade, used, and repaired items. Meanwhile, the popular "Wild im West" flea market is relocating due to new construction projects.

As reported by ORF, a former building materials warehouse of the insolvent dealer "Quester" in Heiligenstadt will be transformed into a novel and sustainable "ShoppingMall" called "Lügner City." This innovative project aims to provide a place dedicated to the sale of handmade, used, and repaired products starting March 2026.

"Lügner City" as a New Sustainable Shopping Center in Vienna

In "Lügner City," not only a traditional shopping center is planned, but also a community workshop and a large industrial kitchen. Currently, the organizers are looking for interested tenants.

David Kreytenberg, managing director of "Wild im West," encourages various craftsmen and artists to participate. "There are no limits," he explains. Here, opportunities can be found for screen printing shops, hairdressers, massage studios, and many other offerings that could find a place in a modern mall.

Relocation of the "Wild im West" Flea Market to Heiligenstadt

In parallel with this new project, the well-known "Wild im West" flea market must vacate its current location in Karl-Farkas-Gasse. The reason for this is the construction of the new "Wien-Holding-Arena," an event hall for up to 20,000 people. Therefore, the popular market is moving to a spacious area of 6,000 square meters in Muthgasse in Heiligenstadt.

The interim use of this new location option is planned for March 2026 and is initially set to last for three years. The "Wild im West" flea market has become an integral part of the Vienna flea market scene and aims to remain a popular attraction for market visitors at the new location as well.
