Vienna Danube Tower Audio Guide - Austria
Welcome to the iconic Vienna Danube Tower (Donauturm), Austria's tallest structure and a masterpiece of modern engineering reaching an impressive height of 252 meters (827 feet). Built in 1964 by architect Hannes Lintl for the Vienna International Garden Show, this remarkable observation tower has become one of the city's most distinctive landmarks.
As your elevator ascends at a speed of 6.2 meters per second, you'll feel the excitement building before reaching the observation deck at 150 meters, which offers breathtaking 360-degree panoramic views across Vienna and, on clear days, extends up to 80 kilometers into the surrounding regions. According to the tower's official records, over 450,000 visitors experience these spectacular vistas annually.
The tower features two unique revolving restaurants - one at 170 meters and another at 160 meters - each completing a full rotation every 26 minutes, providing diners with an ever-changing view of the cityscape. The late architectural critic Friedrich Achleitner once described it as "Vienna's vertical gateway to the sky," praising its sleek design that harmoniously blends function with aesthetic appeal. The tower's foundation alone required 1,600 cubic meters of concrete, demonstrating the remarkable engineering feat of its construction.
On this audio guide, you will learn about the tower's fascinating history, including its role in broadcasting television signals across Vienna since its inauguration. The structure has withstood winds of up to 200 kilometers per hour thanks to its innovative design and three-point foundation system. For the adventurous, the tower offers Europe's highest outdoor staircase with 779 steps, while the more daring can experience the "High Up" viewing platform, where you can peer straight down through glass floors from 150 meters above ground. With its combination of architectural brilliance, engineering excellence, and unparalleled views, the Donauturm stands as a testament to Vienna's forward-thinking spirit and continues to captivate visitors with its unique blend of thrill and elegance.
