The old school building at Kronesgasse has been the main location for teaching in the first two semesters. The building houses the studios for all first-year students. The hall is used for lectures and events. The architectural model workshop offers help with complex designs. The storage serves as a teaching aid if working materials are needed at short notice. The office space of the KOEN Institute is close by in case of task-specific or organizational questions. The courtyard and terrace offer plenty of space to relax. The Kronesgasse is an essential part of the KOEN Institute's teaching concept.
