The Haas House is a building in Vienna, Austria, at the Stock-im-Eisen-Platz.

Designed by the Austrian architect Hans Hollein, it is a building in the postmodernist style and was completed in 1990. The building is located at the site of the former {{ill|Philipp Haas & Söhne|de}} flagship department store dating to 1867, destroyed during World War II and rebuilt in 1953. The use of the Haas-Haus is divided between retail and a restaurant. The building is considered controversial owing to its contrast with the adjacent Stephansdom cathedral.

In December 2014, Uniqa Insurance Group sold the building to the Austrian catering company Do & Co, which now uses it as their headquarters.{{cite web |title=Do & Co kauft Wiener Haas-Haus |url=https://www.derstandard.at/consent/tcf/story/2000009460558/do-co-kauft-wiener-haas-haus-um-knapp-107-millionen |website=DER STANDARD |access-date=17 March 2023 |language=de-AT}}
