Rathaus, Vienna

The Rathaus is a building in Vienna which serves as the seat both of the mayor and city council of the city of Vienna. The town hall also serves, in personal union, as Governor and Assembly (Landtag) of the State of Vienna, a state with the Austrian federal system.

History

The Rathaus was designed by Friedrich von Schmidt in the Gothic style, and built between 1872 and 1883. On the top of the tower is the Rathausmann, one of the symbols of Vienna. Facing the Rathaus is a large park, the Rathauspark. The Rathaus also accommodates the historic 'Wiener Rathauskeller' restaurant. The traditional restaurant consists of several baroque halls, offering small traditional Viennese delicacies to grand gala buffets. Recently finished renovations (2000) include the re-opening of the neo-baroque Salon Ziehrer and the redesigned Lanner-Lehar Hall with wall and ceiling murals by German Trompe-l'œil artist Rainer Maria Latzke.

This place is always used of outdoor activities; christmas market, skating in winter, and lots of concerts in summer. It is located across the theater, and there is a very facy restaurant in as well.

Viyana’nın tarihi belediye binası, tam bir dönem yapısı. Yapının önü çok geniş bir etkinlik alanına sahip. Çadır kurularak burada günlerce süren organizasyonlar gerçekleştiriliyor.
