Abstract
Many critics have already pointed out baroque characteristics inherent in the buildings of Otto Wagner. Based on this, in this article, L tried to explore his view, about baroque architecture, considering its relations with the evaluation by Vienna art-historians and neo-baroque architecture. I drew Wagner's view about baroque architecture from his 'book "Modern Architecture". Then, the connection between Wagner and art-historians at his time, A. Ilg and A. Riegl, over baroque architecture was studied. Further, through examined Wagner's writings, I discussed his opinion about the regional characteristics and the relations to baroque.
