Excursions to Vienna
Explore the capital of Austria during your stay
You should ideally plan several excursions to Vienna during your holiday in the Burgenland. The former imperial city and royal seat of Vienna impresses with its wide range of sights, events and museums.
Vienna is just a 45 minute drive away from Moerbisch. Travelling by bus takes approx. 90 minutes. Whichever you choose: Vienna is well worth a visit!
Excursions to Vienna: the historic centre of the Danube metropolis
You should ideally leave your car on the outskirts of town and explore the centre of Vienna by underground. This is the fastest and most comfortable way of reaching the sights of Vienna. Get off at the Stephansplatz stop and you will find yourself at the heart of this Danube capital. The escalator will take you up to ground level as the tower of St. Stephen’s Cathedral gradually appears before you. Visit the spiritual centre of Vienna and climb the tower of this striking Gothic structure: the views across Vienna are simply breath-taking!
Excursions to Vienna: cultural and historical sights
The following sights are not to be missed during your trip to Vienna:
- Vienna Hofburg Palace with imperial residential and working areas
- Imperial Spanish Riding School, watch the morning training of the Lipizzaner horses
- Albertina museum with impressive works of art
- Schoenbrunn Castle and a walk through the spacious castle park and zoo
If you want to use your trip to Vienna for a shopping tour, a visit to the Graben, Mariahilferstrasse and Kaerntnerstrasse streets is recommended. A stop off at the Hotel Sacher is also a must during your trip to Vienna: the original Viennese Sachertorte cake tastes even better in the historical ambience of this traditional awe-inspiring hotel.
Combine your holiday in the natural paradise of Lake Neusiedl with a trip to Vienna or for example Bratislava: send a non-binding enquiry to the Schmidt family and their team!
