City Tour

Vienna’s history dates back to the first post-Christian century when the Romans established the military camp Vindobona.

Today’s cityscape is characterised by the abundance of baroque buildings created mostly under the rule of Empress Maria Theresia and Emperor Franz Joseph who was largely responsible for the monumental architecture round the Ringstrasse.
