This year, the usually reserved Austrians may betray a
shred of excitement, as Vienna hosts the huge Eurovision
song festival event in May, watched by millions across the
planet. And Australia is participating as a special guest in this
European party see page 17 for more details.
Until the world drops by in May, we have Vienna all to
ourselves, and theres plenty to enjoy this spring. As the
weather warms its nally time to take back the parks and
public spaces in Vienna. Finally we can enjoy a coee on the
terraces of the famed cafs again. For a special experience,
head to the mother of all parks in Vienna, the Prater
amusement park, which celebrates the arrival of the warmer
season in March.

History
Starting o as a tiny village along the Wien river, Vienna
is now the 10th largest city in the EU and home to many
major international organizations such as the United
Nations and OPEC.
ANTIQUITY
Founded around 500 BC, Vienna was originally a Celtic
settlement. By 15 BCE, the town had developed into a
Roman frontier city called Vindobona, protecting the
Roman Empire from Germanic tribes.
HABSBURGS
AND OTTOMANS
During the Middle Ages, Vienna became the residence
of the Habsburg dynasty in 1440 and eventually grew to
become the capital of the Holy Roman Empire. On their
march towards western Europe, the Ottoman armies
were twice stopped at Vienna in the 16th and 17th
centuries. During the 1529 Siege of Vienna, the city was
lucky to escape defeat and was saved by an early winter
and epidemics. A century later, the citys fortications
had been greatly expanded and proved their worth
during the 1683 Battle of Vienna, when they helped
the city survive for two months, allowing the army led
by Polish King Jan Sobieski to assemble and defeat the
Ottomans for good.
18TH CENTURY
Baroque was the style of the century, and local nobility
started constructing palaces in the countryside immediately
outside the city, resulting in several magnicent summer
palaces.
19
TH
CENTURY
20TH CENTURY
Industrialisation of and immigration to Vienna lead to a
period of expansion. By 1910, Vienna was the sixth largest
city in the world, with large numbers of Czech and Jewish
residents. The city was a centre of the new Jugendstil style
from 1900. The Austro-Hungarian Empire fell apart at the
end of the First World War and in 1918 the Republic of
Deutsch-sterreich was created. Socialism quickly became
popular and Red Vienna saw many residential estates

Vienna Districts
4, 5, 6. NASCHMARKT
This is currently Viennas most vibrant area with chic cafes
and people strolling past trendy stores and art galleries. You
would not want to miss out on a visit to Viennas central
Naschmarkt, selling all sorts of food and with amazing
restaurants and cosy cafs where many tourists and locals
enjoy a break. The Freihausviertel south of Naschmarkt in
the 4th district is the upcoming chic shopping mile. The
6th district, north of Naschmarkt, is known for its many gay
bars.
1. CITY CENTRE
The city centre literally refers to the very heart of Vienna. In the
mid-19th century Viennas old city wall was replaced by the
boulevard which in conjunction with the Franz-Josefs-Kai now
forms a ring around the city centre. Magnicent buildings such
as the state opera house, the Hofburg, the parliament building,
the Vienna city hall, the Burgtheater, the university, the Vienna
stock exchange and numerous prestigious buildings line this
splendid boulevard. Most 5-star hotels as well as major sights
are located here. Tourists will spend most of their time in this
area, with everything more or less within walking distance.
While Krnterstrasse and Graben are the two major shopping
streets in the city centre, Stephansplatz with St. Stephens
cathedral is the very centre of Vienna.
2. PRATER
The citys largest park stretches from the Praterstern metro
and train station towards the Ernst Happel stadium. Next
to Praterstern is the Wurstelprater amusement park. Some
say its better to avoid this area after dark. Leopoldstadt in
Viennas 2nd district used to be the Jewish part of town.
Today the jewish community is again growing and you will
nd kosher bakeries and a number of synagogues.
3. BELVEDERE
& HUNDERTWASSERHAUS
The third district is one of Viennas most desirable addresses.
Several buildings designed by Viennas most unusual architect
Friedenreich Hundertwasser, as well as Belvedere Palace, the
luxurious residence of Prince Eugene of Savoy, are all located
here. In addition, the district houses numerous embassies and
foreign missions, hence its name the Embassy Quarter.
8
6, 7. MARIAHILFERSTRASSE
AREA
Mariahilferstrasse is known as Central and Eastern Europes
most important shopping street. Since the fall of the Iron
Curtain, hundreds of buses bring shoppers from Hungary,
Czech Republic and Slovakia to Viennas top shopping
street to get their Christmas presents. A lot of interesting
stores, nice restaurants and relaxed bars are found strolling
around the side streets.
7, 8, 9. GRTEL AREA
Grtel is the name of the highway ring that encircles
Viennas central districts 1-9. In the zone between
Westbahnhof station and the Danube canal, the red-light
district has developed into Viennas hottest nightlife spot
with dozens of clubs and bars, one after the other. Go and
nd a bar that ts your taste!

DISABLED TRAVELLERS
Most hotels, restaurants and sights in Vienna are wellequipped for people in wheelchairs or otherwise requiring
assistance, and public transport is easy to use with its many
escalators, lifts and low-oor trams. The symbols below
our hotel reviews which hotels are suitable. The city has an
informative site for disabled travellers at www.wien.info/
en/travel-info/accessible-vienna.
ELECTRICITY
Austrian electrical current is 220v AC, and the country uses
the standard European round, two-pin sockets.
POLITICS
The current mayor of Vienna is Michael Hupl. Since 1917,
Vienna has been (co-)governed by the Social Democratic
Party with an absolute majority in the city parliament
(except from 1934 to 1945 when the party was banned
and mayors were appointed by the Austro-fascist and
later by Nazi authorities). The Social Democrats currently
rule in coalition with the Green Party. Many political
experts believe that the rival Austrian Peoples Party would
completely dominate Austrian politics if it werent for the
Social Democrats unbreakable hold on Vienna. An example
of the citys many social democratic policies is the low-cost
Gemeindebauten residential estates which house about
25% of the Viennese population.
SMOKING
Ocially all restaurants, cafs and other such venues
have to provide a non-smoking section. While recently
many restaurants turned into smoke-free zones, dont be
surprised how smoky many bars and clubs can get. Most
traditional coee houses will have a smoking area.
TIPPING
If the service merits it, waiters appreciate a tip of about
10%; at the bar or at the Wrstelstand its common to round
up the sum a little.

The Prater started o as the private hunting grounds of
Emperor Joseph II. Immediately after he donated the area
to the city of Vienna in 1766, it was used for recreational
purposes, becoming one of Europe's oldest entertainment
parks. Inns, bars, restaurants, theatres, swings, merry-gorounds, bowling alleys and other attractions were quickly
built and soon enough the crowds from across Vienna
ocked to the area in search for fun and relaxation away

nourished escapees from Viennas darker side. Night-owls
from police on duty to drunk clubbers all congregate
here for a greasy after-hours schnitzel and a beer. Lately,

FIGLMLLER
The history of Viennas most famous schnitzel began in

a bit crisper than the others, and served with the classic
potato salad side dish. Figlmller is still a lovingly run family

VIENNAS SWEET
OBSESSION
Probably in no other city would you nd such mind-boggling variety of savoury cakes, cookies, chocolates, nougats, marzipans and baked goods. Few other places in
the world would have locals choosing to eat a sweet dish
as a main course for dinner. Pastry and confections are
as quintessential to Vienna as St. Stephans Cathedral or
the waltz. Craving some sweet x for lunch? Try a slice of
the famous Apfelstrudl apple pie. Whats for dinner? How
about some Kaiserschmarrn - sliced pancakes served
with sugar powder, cinnamon and plum jam? Even if you
dont have a sweet tooth, you are almost certain to grow
one in Vienna. And while you wont have to walk more
than a block or two before you run into another place
that will tempt you to compromise on your cholesterol,
these are the venues that you shouldnt miss.

Coffeehouses
Vienna is one of those cities where coee is much more
than just a drink. Many coee houses in Vienna date back
to the 19th century, when there was little private heating,
and people used the coee houses as a second living
room, because they could not aord to heat their homes.
Unlike some other caf traditions around the world, it is
completely normal for a customer to linger alone for hours
and study the omnipresent newspapers. Along with coee,
the waiter will serve an obligatory glass of cold tap water
and during a long stay will often bring additional water
unrequested, with the idea being that you are a guest who
should feel welcome and not pressured to leave. Many
cafs provide small food dishes like sausages as well as
desserts, cakes and tarts, like Apfelstrudel and Linzer Torte.
In many classic cafs piano music is played in the evenings
and social events like literary readings are held.

everyone in this town, and we mean everyone. From trendy
bars to Irish pubs, lounge clubs and underground locations,
oering all kinds of nocturnal fun you might be looking for.
BARS
BETTEL-ALM
Though Vienna boasts several interesting places to spend
the night carousing with friends, they all have something
in common: they are distinctly Viennese. In contrast,
the Bettelalm has a distinctly Salzburger feel to it. From
the dcor to the music and the drinks, the Bettelalm is
reminiscent of aprs-ski and summer mountain locales
in Salzburg.QB-3, Johannesgasse 12, MStadtpark, tel.

makes it a favourite among students and young creative

Designed by famous architect Adolf Loos in 1908, this bars
design is denitely in accordance with one of Loos driving
principles: cosiness. A tiny space, made to look larger than it
is by the mirrors mounted along the walls above the wooden
panelling, has only a handful of tables so be prepared
to share with strangers. The beer selection is weak and
overpriced, but the cocktails are top-notch. Quentin Tarantino

GAY VIENNA
Calling Vienna the San Francisco of Central Europe
would be somewhat of an exaggeration. Neither would
a comparison to Amsterdam, Barcelona or Berlin hold
up, for that matter. Yet, although gay life in Vienna is
quite low-key, things do happen, and for the most part,
a live and let live attitude seems to prevail among the
locals. The city hosts an annual GLBT Pride Parade on
the Ringstrasse, as well as a high-prole international
HIV/AIDS charity event known as the Life Ball. As for the
gay venues, most are clustered around Naschmarkt in
the 4th, 5th and 6th districts, but there are a few others
scattered around the city. Austrians arent usually keen
on starting conversation with strangers, so dont be shy
unless you want to spend the evening by yourself.
CAF BERG
Caf Berg has been catering to the gay, lesbian and
transgender community for the past 17 years in the
same street that Sigmund Freud once lived and worked.
The caf oers breakfast well into the afternoon, and

BELVEDERE
Named for the Italian phrase for beautiful view, the
Belvedere palace complex was originally conceived as
a summer country estate for Prince Eugene of Savoy,
one of the most celebrated military heroes in European
history. His impressive collection of artwork is displayed
here, along with more recent additions from the royal
Habsburg holdings. The Upper Belvederes major
attraction is undoubtedly Gustav Klimts famous painting
The Kiss, which can also be seen on countless scarves,
mugs, posters and other trinkets sold by surrounding
shops and street vendors. While most visitors skip the
Lower Belvedere, its collection of curiously troubling
Messerschmidt heads make the extra few euros for a

As you can probably tell by the Gaudi-esque shapes
and colourful palate, Hundertwasser embraced a
playful, environmentally-focused artistic philosophy. He
proclaimed that straight lines were godless and immoral,
that every building should have as many trees as tenants,
that rolling, uneven oors were a divine melody to the
feet, and that access to a window was a basic human
right. While entering the building is not permitted (it
is a private residence for 52 families and 250 trees and

SECESSION
This remarkable building was conceived as a deliberate
opposition to the predominant artistic nostalgia of the early
20th century, and most of Vienna ridiculed its crowning
gold sphere as a goldenes Krauthappel or golden cabbage
when it was unveiled in 1908. Today, the vegetable-ism has
become something of an endearment with the building
featured on the back of Austrian-minted 0,50 coins, and
the building has functioned as a forum for modern Austrian
artists for more than 100 years. The main attraction is
undoubtedly Gustav Klimts Beethoven Frieze, but the
higher ticket price will also snag you entry to the other

Jewish Vienna
There are few cities in Europe where the Jewish population
has been so deeply ingrained, and yet, has experienced
such devastation during the persistent waves of antiSemitism and in the World War II, as Vienna. The historical,
political and economic contribution of the Jewish
community into this citys past and present can hardly be
underestimated. It would suce to say that three of four
Nobel Prize Winners from Austria were Jewish. Luminaries
such as the father of psychoanalysis Sigmund Freud, writers
Arthur Schnitzler and Stefan Zweig, composers Gustav
Mahler and Emmerich Kalman, and the founder of modern
Zionist movement Theodore Herzl, all lived and worked
here and were all of Jewish origin.

EARLY HISTORY
The rst mention of Jews in Vienna is from the 12th
century. By 1420 the Jews had comprised about 5% of
the citys population, but soon they were expelled from
the city, their property was conscated, and many were
brutally murdered in nearby Erdberg. Later in the 15th
century they were allowed to return and establish their
own colony in Leopoldstadt. Under the reign of Empress
Maria Theresa laws were introduced that substantially
worsened the condition of the Jews; these were later
repealed, and Vienna became the center of Jewish culture
in Central Europe.
WORLD WAR II
AND THE HOLOCAUST
On March 12, 1938, Hitler marched into Vienna and made
a speech at the balcony of the Hofburg Palace. Almost
immediately, Aryan-only laws were enacted, and Jews were
deprived of civil rights, were not permitted to own land or
hold public oce. On November 9, 1938, the notorious
Kristallnacht occurred, when angry residents, driven by
the Nazi party, torched Jewish businesses and synagogues.
About 6,000 Jews were apprehended and sent to Dachau
camp that day. Following the Wannsee Conference of
1942, Jews were stripped of their citizenship and mass
deportations to concentration camps ensued. The Jewish
community, that had counted over 200 thousand people
in 1938, was all but decimated. More than 130,000 were
forced to leave the country, about 65,000 were murdered.
Less than 1,000 managed to survive the catastrophe.
vienna.inyourpocket.com
Jewish Vienna
THE JEWISH COMMUNITY
TODAY
It took Austria almost fty years to come to terms and accept
its role in the holocaust. Traces of anti-Semitism continued
through the 1980s and can still be felt to this day. Not until 1991
did the government nally issue a statement acknowledging
their role in the Third Reich. The Jewish population has been
growing since the 1950s, primarily due to immigration from
Eastern Europe, the former Soviet Union and Iran; today it
stands at about 14,000 and there are fteen synagogues.
JEWISH SIGHTS
The Jewish Museum of Vienna is one of the largest in
Europe, with locations at Dorotheergasse and Judenplatz.
The Dorotheergasse location uncovers the Jewish history
of Vienna throughout the centuries, while at Judenplatz
there are the archeological remains of a 500-year old
synagogue, and a monument to the Austrian victims of
the holocaust. The Stadttempel at Seitenstettengasse
is the only synagogue to survive the war and is open for
guided tours. Other Jewish sights include Theodore Herzl
Stiege, the stairs named after the father of Zionism, and
the monument to the victims of Gestapo at Morzinplatz.
The Jewish Welcome Center at Stephansplatz has further
information about Jewish life and culture in Vienna.
FREUD IN VIENNA
Sigmund Freud, one of Viennas most prominent Jewish
intellectuals, lived and worked at Berggasse 19 between
1859 and 1938. Hes now recognized as the founder
of modern psychology, but when he was in Vienna,
Freuds career as a researcher and theorist was heavily
marked by confrontation and opposition due to the
strong anti-Semitic attitude in Viennese politics and
society. Consequently, Freud did not enjoy much local
recognition for his work on psychoanalysis, which was
held in low regard and labelled as a Jewish science, and
his career at the University of Vienna stagnated crumbled.
After the annexation of Austria in 1938 he ed to London,
but despite the constant ostracism he experienced in
Vienna, he always longed for his former home.

Expat Vienna
So youve decided to settle down in Vienna; perhaps youve
met your sweetheart here, or have been dispatched to work
here by your boss. Whatever brings you to this city, do keep
in mind that just as anywhere else, youll be confronted
by both pros and cons of living in a foreign country and
in a dierent cultural environment. While Vienna has long
been a cosmopolitan city with headquarters of major
international organizations, such as the UN, OPEC or OSCE,
and it does have a sizeable expat population, you will still
be facing certain dilemmas ranging from how to nd an
apartment, where to send your children to school, and
not least important, how to make yourself comfortable
and nd a circle of friends here. We have assembled some
useful information for you, and while it is by no means allinclusive, we believe that it will help you make a good start.
To the benet of Vienna, it is one of the easier cities to live
in for several reasons:
It has one of the highest standards of living in the world
and has continuously been rated the best place to live by
Mercer and other rating agencies;
It boasts excellent infrastructure. Public transport is quite
aordable and runs on time, and the city streets, for the
most part, tend to be kept clean and safe;
Vienna has good healthcare system although you should
expect somewhat longer waiting times to see a specialist
than, for instance, in the US. Family physicians are usually
quite accessible and you dont normally have to wait
long. For EU citizens, healthcare is available via panEuropean e-card;
It has countless opportunities for cultural and intellectual
fullment and features a number of world-class
museums, theatres and opera houses;
Viennas greenery and recreational areas are meticulously
maintained and the city has vast opportunities for
exercising and sports;
Although Vienna is quintessentially a German-speaking
city, language shouldnt be a serious problem. Many
locals, particularly of the younger generation, have a
superb command of English and are willing to use it.
That said, dont expect every corner baker, hairstylist or
plumber to understand you, try to pick up some useful
phrases in German before you arrive or sign up for a
language course when you are here.
Yet, despite those numerous advantages, its not that
everything is hunky-dory in this city, and there are certain
bumpy areas you should beware of:
Vienna is a costly city to live in. Food, especially that of
high quality, tends to be on the pricey side, as are most
services and utilities. Although not quite as outrageous as
in London or Paris, living in Vienna is substantially more
expensive than in cities like Berlin or Prague;
Finding a suitable place to live in might be your biggest
challenge. Due to extreme shortage of prime real estate,
many apartments in Vienna tend to be old, unfurnished and
seriously overpriced. Furthermore, 95% of property is rental, so
buying an apartment, should you wish to do this, may prove
nearly impossible, especially for non-EU residents (unless, of
course, you are an oil tycoon or a famous opera star);
