Affordable holidays in a priceless setting: a trip to Vienna doesn’t have to be expensive, especially in summer when life takes place outdoors. A few Tipps
For most travelers to Vienna, the day begins in the coffee house. On the other hand, if you want something cheaper, you can get breakfast on hand. Namely from the Öfferl family, who have really stirred up the Viennese bakery scene in recent years. It’s worth queuing for a breakfast croissant or a curd cheese goola.
Free museums
A good start to the day, which now continues inexpensively. Because if you travel tactically and are in the city on the first Sunday of the month, you can visit many museums in Vienna free of charge: the Clock Museum has one of the most important clock collections in Europe, and the Roman Museum takes you back to the time when Vienna was still called Vindobona. Not far from the first settlements is the Virgil chapel from the 13th century, which was discovered in 1973 in the course of the subway construction under Stephansplatz. A visit to the Otto Wagner pavilions on Karlsplatz and in Hietzing is recommended for architecture fans; Music lovers should visit the homes of Strauss, Beethoven, Haydn and Schubert. The Museum of Military History also opens its doors on the first Sunday of the month with free admission, and the Museum of Applied Arts every week on Tuesday evening. Changing photo exhibitions can be seen in the OstLicht gallery – in the premises of a former bread factory.
