Vienna has a mixture of architecture representing many periods and styles going from Baroque and Gothic design to Art Nouveau, not to mention Modernist masterpieces and contemporary buildings.
The historic 1st district boasts so many remarkable museums that will make you feel like taking a walk back in time. I personally think it’s impossible to visit them all in one go so be prepared to go back to Vienna several times.
You will find plenty of modern landmarks, the most important ones are designed by contemporary architects like Zaha Hadid and Dominique Perrault.
Anyways, whichever architectural style you prefer, I’m sure you’ll find some fascinating examples of it in this city. Enjoy this Vienna architecture guide!
