The Triester Viertel runs from the Favoriten water tower in the south along Triester Straße to the Protestant cemetery on Matzleinsdorfer Platz. The Gußriegelstraße borders the Triester Viertel in the east. It was an industrial and residential area. Numerous factories located here contributed to the boom during the Austro-Hungarian Empire. Most of these companies have long since ceased their activities or have moved away.

Opposite the water tower is the "Spinner on the Cross", a Gothic stone column. There are many legends about its origin. It is proven that a stone cross stood here already in 1446.

Matzleinsdorfer Platz is a transportation hub and transfer station for numerous streetcar lines, express trains, the Badner Bahn and the Flix Bus. Currently, the largest construction site in Vienna is located there. By 2026, Matzleinsdorfer Platz will be connected to the U2 subway line, which will run to Wienerberg.

The protestant Christuskirche with its red bricks is an eye-catcher in the hustle and bustle around Matzleinsdorfer Platz. All the bricks come from the former brick factories on the Wienerberg. All cornices and ornaments of the chapel are made of fired clay and come from the same factories. It is located at the Matzleinsdorf Protestant cemetery, an oasis of peace in the middle of the city. Numerous historical graves from past centuries have been preserved. https://www.evang-friedhof.at/matzleinsdorf/christuskirche-matzleinsdorf/

Up Triester Strasse, out of town, past the Water Tower and the Spinner am Kreuz, is the so-called "Wienerberg City" with the Twin Towers, a modern business district where international companies have also settled. The Twin Towers have become the landmark of the Wienerberg. https://www.wien.info/de/sightseeing/architektur-design/twin-towers-362180

Behind them, to the south, is the 117-hectare Wienerberg recreation area with walking paths, a dog zone and a swimming pond. It was not created until 1983 to 1990. Until the 1960s, clay was mined there for brick production. The listed brick production company "Wienerberger" traces its 200-year history back to the former brickworks on the Wienerberg.
