The National Council ("Nationalrat") is one of the two houses of the Austrian Parliament and is frequently referred to as the lower house.
 The constitution endows the National Council far more power than the Federal Council.
The Austrian Parliament Building (German: "Parlamentsgebäude" , colloquially "das Parlament") in Vienna is where the two houses of the Austrian Parliament conduct their sessions.
 The building is located on the "Ringstraße" boulevard in the first district "Innere Stadt", near Hofburg Palace and the Palace of Justice.
 It was built to house the two chambers of the Imperial Council ("Reichsrat"), the bicameral legislature of the Cisleithanian (Austrian) part of the Austro-Hungarian Empire.
 Since its construction, the Parliament Building has been the seat of these two houses, and their successors—the National Council ("Nationalrat") and the Federal Council ("Bundesrat")—of the Austrian legislature.
The House of Lords (German: "Herrenhaus" , Czech: "Panská sněmovna" , Italian: "Camera dei signori" , Slovene: "Gosposka zbornica" , Polish: "Izba Panów" ) was the upper house of the Imperial Council, the bicameral legislature of the Austrian Empire from 1861 and of the Cisleithanian (Austrian) half of Austria-Hungary upon the Compromise of 1867.
 Created by the February Patent issued by Emperor Franz Joseph I on 26 February 1861, it existed until the end of World War I and the dissolution of the Dual Monarchy, when on 12 November 1918 the transitional National Assembly of German-Austria declared it abolished.
 It was superseded by the Federal Council of the Austrian Parliament implemented by the 1920 Federal Constitutional Law.
