For centuries Vienna was the capital of the Habsburgs, one of the most powerful families in Europe. Its historic centre is small and easy to explore on foot. There are Gothic churches, imperial palaces and gardens. With Piracity you discover it as you walk, like a treasure hunt for the whole family.
Paradas para descobrir
Cattedrale di Santo Stefano
St. Stephen's Cathedral is the symbol of Vienna. Its south tower, 136 metres tall, rises above the historic centre. The roof is covered in glazed tiles that form colourful patterns.
Colonna della Peste
The Plague Column, also called the Trinity Column, is one of Vienna's most famous Baroque monuments. It recalls the end of the 1679 epidemic and was consecrated in 1693.
Michaelerplatz
Michaelerplatz is the square in front of the historic entrance to the Hofburg. It brings together distant eras: Roman ruins, a medieval church, the imperial façade and the modern architecture of Adolf Loos.
Heldenplatz
Heldenplatz is the great square in front of the Hofburg. It arose after the Napoleonic Wars and is named after the statues of Archduke Charles and Prince Eugene on horseback.
Burggarten
The Burggarten is the park of the Hofburg, laid out in 1817–1820 as the emperors' private garden. It is now a public park with the Palmenhaus and the Mozart monument.
Albertina
The Albertina is a palace on Vienna's old walls and one of the world's great museums of drawings and prints. Its name comes from Duke Albert of Saxe-Teschen.
Wiener Staatsoper
The Wiener Staatsoper is one of the most famous opera houses in the world. It opened in 1869 as the Court Opera and was the first great building on the Ringstraße.
Chiesa di San Carlo Borromeo
The Karlskirche is the most important Baroque church in Vienna. Emperor Charles VI built it to keep a vow of 1713; Johann Bernhard Fischer von Erlach designed it.
The sights along the route
The route visits eight places in the centre, all close to one another. You start in the heart of the city, among pedestrian streets and small shops. Then you cross the courtyards of the Hofburg, the emperors' palace. You will discover the rest stop by stop: squares, statues on horseback, gardens, museums and a great palace of music.
It is just over 2 km on foot, on flat streets. You need about 3 hours of play, plus your breaks. The route does not return to the starting point and ends near the underground.
History and culture, lived through play
Every stop tells a piece of history. There are emperors and archdukes, archaeologists, Baroque architects and musicians. There are questions about art and traditions, riddles, anagrams and small logic puzzles. The questions are designed for children aged 9 and up and for their parents.
You don't need to know everything already. Many answers are found by looking closely at what is in front of you, others by reasoning together. That way a walk becomes a challenge to play as a team.
An adventure that continues
Once the hunt is over, Vienna still has plenty to offer families. At the Prater there is a big Ferris wheel and a huge green park. In the park of Schönbrunn Palace there are avenues, mazes and a zoo. In summer, on a long island in the great river, there are beaches for swimming and paths for cycling.
The city's museums have rooms designed for children. Every district has its own story: your next hunt is waiting.
