Imagine stepping into Vienna at the close of the 1940s: rubble, occupation zones, the black market, smoke-filled coffeehouses — and a city that has learned to leave a great deal unsaid.
Vienna Shadow makes that era something you can feel, intensely and through the senses. At its center stands Lila Voss, a captivating survivor with many masks. The episodes are dense with […]
Sometimes you don’t have to travel far at all to find yourself surrounded by green. From our place in Hernals, a few minutes is all it takes to swap pavement for forest floor – no car needed, no long expedition. That’s exactly what Christian and I love about our district: the city right on the doorstep, the Vienna Woods just behind it.
Two […]
One thing first: in Vienna, you really don’t need a car. The city is so well connected by underground, tram and bus that you’ll usually get almost anywhere faster (and a lot more relaxed) on public transport – no hunting for a parking spot. From our place in Hernals, the tram and the suburban train have you in the […]
Vienna brims with grand narratives: opera, waltzes, coffeehouse culture, imperial façades. But in between lie countless small voices, so often unheard.
Vienna Whispers gathers exactly those notes. In short, atmospheric stories, the project speaks of people, moments, and places that would otherwise go unseen. Sometimes tender, sometimes melancholy, sometimes surprising — always with a fine ear for the hidden soul of […]
We can still hardly believe it – and we couldn’t be happier: after months of work and a rather rigorous audit, we’re finally holding it in our hands, our Green Key. Christian and I are a little proud, we’ll happily admit that.
Green Key is a global, voluntary eco-certification, coordinated by the Foundation for Environmental […]
You may have noticed it the moment you landed on our site: something has changed. A new logo, fresher colours, a cleaner line. After plenty of tinkering behind the scenes, we’ve given ourselves a new look. And we couldn’t be happier to finally show it to you.
Honestly? Our old appearance no longer quite matched who we are. Over […]
Summertime and water somehow belong together. Vienna is (unfortunately) still not by the sea, but that’s no reason to miss out on exciting water-related activities.
So today’s focus is on boating, yes exactly, because there is a really fine offer in Vienna where you can combine several things at once. But first things first.
As you know, Vienna is located on the […]
If you take a stroll through Hernals, you might just catch a sweet scent in the air: the aroma of freshly made hazelnut cream. That’s because right here in Vienna’s 17th district, one of Austria’s most beloved sweets is made – the iconic Manner wafers. And yes, we’re a little proud to have such a world-famous company in our neighborhood. […]
Vienna is not only known for its magnificent architecture, culture and coffee houses – the city is also surrounded by a true natural paradise: the Vienna Woods. And the best part? Our Ferchergasse apartments are located on the edge of this green jewel, so you can set off on your nature adventure straight […]
Vienna is beautiful – but why not think outside the box? In less than an hour from our Ferchergasse apartments, you can reach another European capital jewel: Bratislava! The Slovakian metropolis on the Danube is perfect for a varied day trip – full of history, culture and culinary delights.
In Bratislava, a charming old town with narrow streets, baroque buildings […]
