A guide to Vienna

Rathausplatz

Rathausplatz, or City Hall Square, is a grand public space in Vienna, dominated by the impressive Vienna City Hall (Rathaus). The square is a central hub for major events, festivals, and markets, including the popular Vienna Christmas Market, which transforms the area into a festive wonderland during the holiday season.

Visit during one of the many public events or seasonal markets to experience the vibrant atmosphere of Rathausplatz. In the summer, the square often hosts open-air concerts and film screenings, offering a lively cultural experience.

The Vienna City Hall, completed in 1883, is a stunning example of neo-Gothic architecture with its tall spire and ornate facade. The building’s design was inspired by the medieval architecture of northern Europe, and it is one of the most iconic landmarks in Vienna.

The city hall and one of the most important squares in Vienna. Also the area for the largest Christmas market with my favorite warm drinks

The market’s centerpiece is a massive, beautifully decorated Christmas tree, which stands prominently in the square..   

Some of the Christmas market action goes down here (and let's be honest, Vienna is absolutely gorgeous in the winter).

One of the most important squares of the city, in front of the old town hall of Vienna.

Christmas market here is the biggest and most magical! Don't miss the ice skating.
