Ringstrasse Vienna

Highlight • Cycleway

The ring road around the 1st district is great for running, especially early in the morning. In large parts very beautiful shady avenues with cycle paths and pedestrian paths. The section on the banks of the Danube is also one of the classics for runners in Vienna.

Stadtpark Vienna

Highlight • Natural

City Park, Vienna since 1862
The City Park is Vienna's first public park and was opened on August 21, 1862.
The City Park is where picturesque meadows, extensive water areas and artistically arranged ornamental shrubs meet. Tall avenue trees serve as a natural barrier to the Ringstrasse. There are special tree species, such as ginkgo, Christ thorn, pyramid poplar and Caucasian wingnut, which are protected.
The City Park is not only beautiful and relaxing, but also full of history and culture, making it a popular destination for visitors from all over the world.

Vienna Secession (Secession Building)

Highlight • Monument

The Vienna Secession was founded on April 3, 1897 by Gustav Klimt, Koloman Moser, Josef Hoffmann, Joseph Maria Olbrich, Max Kurzweil, Josef Engelhart, Ernst Stöhr, Wilhelm List, Adolf Hölzel and other artists as a spin-off (Secession) from the Vienna Künstlerhaus, because the artists rejected the conservatism that prevailed at the Künstlerhaus and the traditional concept of art that was oriented towards historicism. The model was the Munich Secession. The first exhibition took place in 1898. In the same year, the most important Austrian art magazine Ver Sacrum was founded. To the left of the entrance door is the motto Ver Sacrum ("Holy Spring"), which is intended to express hope for a new blossoming of art.

Burgtheater Vienna

Highlight • Historical Site

The Burgtheater is the largest German speaking theater and one of the most important stages in Europe. From 1748 to 1888 it was located on Michaelerplatz, until it had to make way for the extension of the Hofburg to include the Michaelertrakt. In October 1888, the new building on Universitätsring was opened, which - with a war-related interruption from 1945 to 1955 - is still the home of the "Burg". The theater has two other venues: The Academy Theater on Lisztstrasse and the Casino on Schwarzenbergplatz. The rehearsal stage of the Burgtheater is located in the arsenal.

When Joseph II declared the Burgtheater, which did not have that name at the time, as the “German National Theatre” in 1776, this primarily referred to the language that was to be spoken on this stage from then on. The imperial measure was a step towards upgrading the national language and was directed against the dominance of French and Italian on the stages - languages that could only be spoken and understood by an elite.
(program preview of the 2019/2020 season)

Martin Kušej will take over as director in September 2019. We are curious.

From now on, the Burgtheater will no longer see itself as a “German national theatre” that only speaks with one tongue and only listens with one ear. It will not be able to cope with itself and the languages spoken in and around it. It will never be finished at all.

Vienna City Hall

Highlight • Monument

The town hall, built between 1872-1883, with the central town hall tower on Rathausplatz opposite the Vienna Burgtheater is a very beautiful building.
