Many guests see St. Stephen's cathedral plus or minus passing by. Some even take their time to shoot a quick pic from the inside, but few people dedicate themselves to this architectonic jewel, which also experienced big part of the city's history. Special about this tour, is the fact, that it is never the same. This is due to being able to talk about St. Stephen's cathedral also a whole day long. Therefore also viennese people get a very unique and individual tour.

This walk explores the origins of Vienna. The focus is not on the city’s famous façades, but on the structures and developments that shaped Vienna into the city we know today. It is ideal for anyone who already knows Vienna to some extent or would like to understand it more deeply. The tour traces the city’s early development: from the first settlements and medieval Vienna to the processes that laid the foundations for its later rise during the Baroque period. At selected locations, it becomes clear how political power, urban structures and social change evolved over the centuries. The walk is deliberately calm, focused and clearly structured, and takes place in a small group of no more than 12 participants. It is intended for visitors who are interested in the broader historical context, not just individual sights. After the tour, Vienna’s city centre becomes easier to read and interpret, its structures, historical turning points and long-term development. The tour takes place in all weather conditions and regardless of the number of participants.
