Stephansdom

posted by yfryer on 18 August 2010 at 12:05

Stephansdom is the number one sight to see in Viennaand is incredibly beautiful. It has a very gothic facade with a multi coloured tiled roof. Inside its dripping in sculptures and flourishes. We went to Mass inside the catheral on Sunday morning and though we couldn't understand the sermon, the acoustics were amazing and the choir sounded amazing.

Seccession Building

posted by hlaborde on 18 August 2010 at 11:56

This building was constructed to comemorate the seccession movement of artists moving away from the Vienna Accademy. Its a really beautiful building with ornate carvings and relief work running round the walls. Its most recognisable by its ornate golden dome. Its quite overpriced to get in, and the only thing really worth seeing is the Beethoven frieze by Klimt in the basement. That said, it is an incredible and completely iconic piece.

Vienna House

posted by lrobinson on 18 August 2010 at 11:49

If you get to the opera house at 10 o'clock or so, you can queue for a couple of hours to get a standing ticket for that evening's performance. The tickets only cost three euros and even though you don't get a seat, you can survive by leaning against a railing. The opera house is absolutely vast and amazingly beautiful inside.

Hundertwasserhaus

posted by Keir on 22 March 2007 at 14:40

Very unusual apartment block designed by Austrian artist Friedensreich Hundertwasser; organic feel with uneven floors, unusually tiled walls terraces with trees growing in them on various levels of the building, grass on the roof walls and pillars all very colourful and crazy looking. There's a museum there so yo ucan go inside and get a feel for it and buy yourself a souvenir. There are now 3 appartment block in the area of the same style, all are worth a look. A must see if visiting Vienna!
