Hop aboard Vienna’s historic Giant Ferris Wheel and witness breathtaking views of the UNESCO-listed city.
In eight cabins, the newly built The Wheel of History – illustrated through the Panorama exhibition – focuses on the history of Vienna in the past 2,000 years through artistic audio-visual installations.
This authentic cultural and architectural highlight of Vienna was originally built in 1897. It has a turning speed of 2.7km and is posed at 64.75-meters above the ground.
It’s a symbol of the Wiener Prater and a huge part of the city’s pride and culture.
From atop the Wheel, you’ll see the picturesque Vienna Woods, the magnificent Danube, the Marchfeld, and the Pannonian Basin.

30 Jan 2023 to 2 Feb 2023
