Program Description
Discover a different side of Vienna on a guided walking tour exploring the city's World War II history. Beyond its imperial palaces and grand boulevards lies a powerful story of conflict, resilience and the events that shaped both Austria and Europe in the 20th century.
Accompanied by a knowledgeable local guide, you'll visit key locations connected to the war while learning about the political circumstances surrounding Adolf Hitler's rise to power and their impact on Vienna. As you walk through the city, you'll gain a deeper understanding of how these events changed the lives of its residents.
The tour also includes sites damaged during wartime bombing, the Soviet War Memorial, and the only synagogue in Vienna to survive the war. You'll learn about the fate of what was once one of the world's largest Jewish communities and discover stories that are often overlooked on traditional city tours.
Ideal for history enthusiasts and anyone interested in Vienna's modern history, this walking tour offers a thoughtful and informative perspective on the Austrian capital.
