How did the Viennese live in the 15th century? Starting from a tax list from the Widmerviertel between Judenplatz, Kärntnerstraße and Hofburg from 1448, which has so far been neglected, this question is examined in detail for the first time. By evaluating other written and archaeological sources, the living conditions in Vienna within the city and in the suburbs can be described in great detail. This reveals many details that shaped life in a late medieval city: the vintners and lived in the suburbs in front of the Widmertor. Citizens with property had taken over the houses of the murdered Jews after 1421. There were bourgeois palaces on the elegant streets, in which even the Duke invited people to dance. In the suburbs, however, the houses were narrow, small, and made of wood. Families lived for rent everywhere in the city, especially in the spacious houses in the city center. All that remains of the medieval buildings are hidden remains. But if you carefully study these remains, you can learn a lot about life in Vienna in the 15th century.
