    Spanish Riding School

    The world-famous Spanish Riding School (Spanische Hofreitschule) is a Viennese institution truly reminiscent of the imperial Habsburg era. This unequalled equestrian show is performed by Lipizzaner stallions formerly kept at an imperial stud established at Lipizza (hence ‘Lipizzaner’; see). These graceful stallions perform an equine ballet to a program of classical music while the audience watches from pillared balconies – or cheaper standing room – and the chandeliers shimmer above. There are many different ways to see the Lipizzaner. Performances are the top-shelf variant, and for seats at these you will need to book several months in advance. The website has the perfor…

    Schloss Schönbrunn

    A tour of Schloss Schönbrunn focuses on the palace itself – especially the Habsburg residents. This means grand rooms and background on the habits and quirks of Austria’s famous family. Of the 1441 rooms within the palace, 40 are open to the public. The Imperial Tour takes you into 26 of these, and in the last room those on a Grand Tour show their tickets again and continue through the remaining rooms. Note that the Grosse Galerie (Great Gallery), part of both tours, is being restored until late 2012. Despite the rather steep prices, both tours are well worth doing for an insight into the people and the opulence of the baroque age. Because of the popularity of the palace,…

    Kirche Am Steinhof

    The splendour and mood of this Otto Wagner creation set in the grounds of the Psychiatric Hospital of the City of Vienna make it one of his most fascinating works. This distinctive art-nouveau church was built from 1904 to 1907; Moser chipped in with the mosaic windows, and the roof is topped by a copper-covered dome that earned the nickname Lemoniberg (lemon mountain) from its original golden colour. The design illustrates Wagner’s love of sharp edges and functionality, even down to the sloping floor to allow good drainage; despite this, it is a highly moving piece of church architecture. The grounds and many of the buildings of the hospital themselves were built in the …

  25. Nationalpark Donau-Auen

    Established in 1996, the Donau-Auen National Park covers around 9300 hectares and runs in a thin strip on both sides of the Danube, extending from the edge of Vienna to the Slovakian border. About 60% is forested and approximately 25% comprises lakes and waterways. You’ll find plentiful flora and fauna, including 700 species of fern and flowering plants, and a high density of kingfishers (feeding off the 50 species of fish found in the waterways here). A Nationalparkhaus (National Park Office) is situated on the northern entrance to the park and offers a series of tours – see the website and register in advance; some are free, others cost for adults/children about €10/5…

    Donauinsel

    This was created in 1970 and is Vienna’s prime aquatic playground, with long sections of beach (don’t expect much sand) perfect for swimming, boating and a little waterskiing. The tips of the island are designated FKK ( Freikörperkultur; free body culture) zones reserved for nudist bathers, who also enjoy dining, drinking, walking, biking and in-line skating au naturel; it’s quite a sight. Concrete paths run the entire length of the island, and there are bicycle and in-line-skate rental stores. Restaurants and snack bars are dotted along the paths, but the highest concentration of bars – collectively known as Sunken City and Copa Cagrana – is near Reichsbrücke and th…
