A City that Breathes Nobility

Vienna

City Description

The historic city centre of Vienna was designed for the pedestrian and the horse-drawn carriage. As a result, many of the cities important attractions are within easy reach of one another.

The city offers a unique blend of imperial traditions, rustic wine taverns, old coffee houses and stunning modern architecture.

The history of the city dates back to the first century AD, but today’s cityscape is characterised by the abundance of baroque buildings built during the time of the Emperor Franz Joseph.

The former Imperial summer residence, the Schonbrunn Palace, boasts beautifully tended gardens, the Gloriette monument, the Palm House and a zoo – it is one of the most visited attractions in the city and should not be missed.

The huge Hofburg (Imperial Palace) was the base for the Habsburg dynasty for over six centuries and is another major focus in the city.

Vienna owes much of its international fame to the many celebrated composers who lived and worked here including Strauss, Mozart, Beethoven and Haydn. The Vienna Philharmonic Orchestra is one the world’s best, the Staatsoper one of the world’s leading opera houses, the Vienna Boys’ Choir one the world’s most famous. In recent times, Vienna has also established its reputation as a great musical metropolis which attracts many to take a Vienna city break.

Vienna, a city that breathes nobility.
