Das Gebäude wurde 1911-1913 nach Plänen des Architekten und k.k.Baurates Josef Grünbeck und Stadtbaumeister Karl Bittmann im Jugendstil errichtet. Von Beginn an war darin die Sparkasse Hernals untergebracht. Die Eröffnung fand am 28.10.1913 vormittags statt. Nach zahlreichen Umorganisationen ist es heute eine Filiale der Bank Austria. Im gleichen Gebäude wurde 1966 das Bezirksmuseum Hernals untergebracht.
