The Narrenturm, opened in 1784 under Emperor Joseph II., was Europe’s first dedicated institution for the treatment of mental illness. Designed by architect Josef Gerl, this unique circular building reflects both the ideals of Enlightenment-era medicine and early psychiatric care. Today, it houses the Pathological-Anatomical Collection of the Natural History Museum Vienna.
