Vienna - the City of Music





Modern Architecture in Vienna



National Theater




More Restaurants in the Old City


Welcome to the world’s music capital! More famous composers have lived here than in any other city – in Vienna, music is literally in the air: Waltzes and operettas have their home here, and so do musicals "made in Vienna," which have conquered international audiences.
The city’s concert halls and stages offer the whole range from classical to progressive sounds with end-to-end festivals the whole year through. Opera fans will meet international stars here and jazz lovers will find a pulsating jazz scene. Pop and rock concerts provide unforgettable live music experiences.
In Vienna, you encounter all architectural styles of European history. Well-known highlights such as the Gothic St. Stephen's Cathedral and the Baroque Schönbrunn Palace draw thousands of visitors every year. Off the beaten path, however, you can discover important architecture of modern times - from Otto Wagner's art nouveau buildings to postmodern statements and current architecture.
