Behind the scenes

„Spring in Vienna feels like a quiet timepiece shifting into motion. And us? We move with it – from place to place, in tune with the city’s rhythm.”

 


   

A FIRST BREATH OF SPRING GREEN

The Palmenhaus in the Burggarten is more than a greenhouse. It’s a space where light moves through structure – and spring reveals itself, framed in glass. A first stop that says everything about our approach: atmosphere over urgency.


   

SECESSION

With its golden dome, the Secession is one of the most iconic buildings of Viennese Modernism. Built in 1897 as an exhibition space for a new generation of artists, it remains a symbol of clean lines, open thinking – and great art that claims its freedom.


   

SISI’S VIOLET GARDEN

The Volksgarten sits just next to the Hofburg and is one of Vienna’s most beautiful public parks. In spring, hundreds of violets bloom here – framed by baroque avenues, neoclassical architecture, and perhaps the city’s most personal monument: Empress Elisabeth, surrounded by her Irish hounds – withdrawn, entirely to herself. She loved violets – especially the candied ones.


   

LUNCH, THE VIENNESE WAY

In Vienna, a Schanigarten is the city’s most refined excuse to take your time at lunch. Order a menu, and you’ll get more: sunlight, conversation, a rhythm that doesn’t rush. Staying longer? That’s not indulgence – it’s tradition.


BELVEDERE PALACE

The Belvedere offers a classic walk through baroque landscaping. In spring, everything sharpens: neat flowerbeds, tranquil symmetry, a view that unfolds toward the city. At the top, the palace – and just beyond, the Botanical Garden. A quiet invitation to keep strolling.

Cayo Coco is Vienna’s rooftop hideout – urban, open, and effortlessly cool. It’s where contemporary design meets drinks with character. The perfect place to let the day wind down in style.
