Vienna for connoisseurs

Vienna for city walkers
Many of the sights of the Austrian capital can be easily explored on foot: Stroll from the Steffl, as the Viennese affectionately call St. Stephen’s Cathedral, through the moat to the famous State Opera on Herbert von Karajan Square. The world-famous Vienna Opera Ball takes place there every year. Hike along the Opernring in the direction of the MuseumsQuartier: The Kunsthistorisches Museum and the Natural History Museum are not only impressive from the outside. The two museums are among the most important in the world and are definitely worth a visit. Walk across the grandiose Heldenplatz in the direction of the Volksgarten. The green oasis in Vienna’s city center is a small paradise and the first public park in the city center. The rose bushes, for which you can take on a sponsorship, are a beautiful backdrop and invite you to take a photo stop. The Vienna Parliament and the City Hall are further stops on the glamorous city walk, which has different highlights in store every season.

Vienna for Art Lovers
The Kunsthistorisches Museum, which emerged from the art collections of the House of Habsburg, is an attraction for almost every visitor to Vienna. Works by such well-known artists as Titian, Tintoretto, Rubens, van Dyck, Vermeer, Rembrandt, Raphael, Caravaggio, Velázquez and Dürer attract tourists from all over the world every day. The Albertina regularly surprises with top-class special exhibitions of renowned painters and highlights by Chagall and Picasso. For friends of Viennese Art Nouveau, a visit to the Vienna Secession with Klimt’s Beethoven Frieze right next to the Naschmarkt is worthwhile after a stroll through the city, during which many exciting examples can be discovered. The Leopold Museum in the MuseumsQuartier, which opened in 2001, inspires with a large collection of important works by Gustav Klimt, Egon Schiele and Oskar Kokoschka. Belvedere Palace is also a hotpot for art lovers, who can visit the world’s largest Klimt exhibition in the beautiful baroque palace.

In Sissi’s footsteps
The former Austrian empress still awakens dreams today. Quite a few visitors to Vienna dream themselves back to the imperial era day after day: The Sisi Museum, the Hofburg and, of course, Schönbrunn Palace make important stations in the life of the empress, brought to life by Romy Schneider, come alive to this day. A stroll through the spacious palace park and the imperial apartments is always fascinating. If you want to visit Sissi’s final resting place, you can take a guided tour of the imperial crypt under the Capuchin Church.
Music is in the air
It is certainly no coincidence that more composers have lived in Vienna than in any other city: opera, operetta, musicals, waltzes and Wienerlied are at home in the city. The Vienna Boys’ Choir, the Vienna Philharmonic and the Vienna Symphony Orchestra are an institution far beyond Austria’s borders. Music lovers should not miss a concert, a visit to the Mozart House, the Hadyn House, the Beethoven Museum or the Museum of the Johann Strauss Dynasty during their visit to Vienna. The much-sung city of Vienna is always worth a visit. Whether you are planning a weekend or a longer stay in the city: Vienna will always surprise and inspire you.
