[Vienna Travel Guide](https://expedia.com/Vienna.dx178316)

#### Stately rooms, grandiose architecture and fun public events make this government building a must-see when you are in the Austrian capital.

Go on a free guided tour of the halls, chambers and state rooms of the late 19th-century Vienna City Hall. This magnificent gothic structure with its huge central spire is a working building, home to the Mayor of Vienna and the official meeting place of the city's council and the provincial government.

Visit the Council Chamber for its huge chandelier and frescos that depict key moments from the history of Austria and Vienna. Inside Stone Hall I, study the tapestry portraying the reconstruction of Vienna after World War II. While you are in the Senate Chamber, marvel at the ornate ceiling and browse the portraits of city mayors.

Stop by the Festival Hall, a beautiful space that hosts concerts, conferences, balls and exhibitions. Investigate its works of art, which include statues of historical figures and portraits of such famous composers as Mozart and Haydn.

Step into the Arcade Courtyard from where there is a good view up to the Rathausmann. This is a statue of a medieval knight that is perched on top of the building's steeple. The figure is made from melted down kopecks (Russian coins). Other parts of the city hall that are included in the guided tour are the Grand Staircases and the Coat of Arms Halls.

Throughout the year, several events are held in the square in front of the grandiose building, including balls, concerts and the Christmas market. If you are in Vienna from January to March, glide gracefully to music on the temporary ice skating rink. During the summer, attend the annual film festival.

Vienna City Hall is located on Friedrich-Schmidt-Platz and is well served by public transportation, including trams and the metro. For drivers, there are paid parking garages within a few minutes’ walking distance.

Visitors can only explore Vienna City Hall on guided tours. These take place on Monday, Wednesday and Friday and are conducted in German. If you don’t speak the language use a free multilingual audio guide. There are no tours during public holidays or when the council or provincial governments are in session.
