Kagran
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Kagran is a neighbourhood in Vienna, Austria, within Donaustadt, the 22nd district of Vienna. It has a population of 69,744 and covers 11.02 km².[1]
In 1904/05, Kagran, then an independent municipality, was incorporated into Vienna as part of the newly established 21st district, Floridsdorf. During the period of Red Vienna, many municipal buildings (Gemeindebauten) and urban settlements were constructed. Since 1954, Kagran, along with seven other towns, has been part of the 22nd district, Donaustadt. Kagran remained town-like until the 1970s, when large housing estates were built by the city to the north-east of the town centre.[2]
Geography
Kagran borders five other subdivisions of Donaustadt: Süßenbrunn, Breitenlee, Hirschstetten, Stadlau, and, across the Old Danube, Kaisermühlen. With an area of 11.02 km2, it is the fourth largest part of Donaustadt. The town features a blend of single-family homes and apartment complexes.[3]
