Donaupark

U.N. Vienna, Page UNV-79.1 (BL-3)

The U.N. offices in Vienna openned in 1980 in a park located near the Danube river – known as Danaupark. The stamp in the middle of the second row and the one by itself on the third row of this album page show drawings of the buildings.

The Viena campus is the headquarters for several U.N. agencies: the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), the inspectors that make sure countries with nuclear plants aren’t enriching uranium for bombs; the U.N. Commission on International Trade Law; the U.N. Industrial Development Organization (see Medicinal Plants page); the U.N. Office for Outer Space Affairs (see Satelites); etc.

Note

The caption of the stamp at the top of this album page says in German, live in peace. That’s a reference to the Preamble to the U.N. Charter. See the Live in Peace page.

Footnotes

  • Spot refers to the postion of the stamp on the album page (e.g., 3.2 indicates row 3, position 2).

  • Amt. is an abbreviation for the face amount of the stamp.

  • Own indicates the stamp status: ✓ for unused; ✗ for used or canceled; ⭑ signifies I ordered one; ; ✨ indicates it was bought recently; ✠ means an auction bid is pending; and ◎ is used, and it costs too much for unused.

  • To search by catalog number, go to the search box and enter it in the catalog number box. However, it’s a bit broken; I need to fix it.
