Overview

Guided and felt history & architecture of Vienna in 2 hours. The development of the city of Vienna - from a place on the border to the center of Europe - understand and experience its history and present - Vienna with a real Viennese - Vienna with HIM.

You take a walk through the city and 2 millennia - enjoy busy places and discover hidden ones - with the aim of "understanding" the city afterwards. Starting from a small Roman fort to one of the most important metropolises in Central Europe in the 19th century. Which architectural styles characterize the city - are there still memories of the Middle Ages? Experience the city as a center of art and music. Mozart and Beethoven lived and worked here, Josef Haydn composed a melody that is still important for Germany today - and we follow in the footsteps of great rulers from Charles V to Franz Josef and his Elisabeth. And Vienna today? A lot of information is waiting for you as a participant on this tour...
