Free Tour 2: Jewish Traces and Hitler’s Vienna (EN)
This Free Walking Tour follows Jewish traces and those of Adolf Hitler during his time in Vienna.
Your guide: Our licensed Austria Guides are state-certified tour guides.
The contents: You will learn about the achievements of the Jewish bourgeoisie and how Judaism in Vienna has developed from the Middle Ages to the present day.
We’ll show you why Vienna became a world-class center of science and the arts around 1900, and what role Sigmund Freud and Karl Landsteiner played in that.
As a counterpoint, we delve into a dark chapter: you will learn how Hitler’s rise to power came about and what the roles of Austria and Germany were in it.
We will shed light on how the National Socialists triggered the catastrophe of the Second World War and what happened during the years of occupation.
Your benefit: You’ll get a glimpse of Vienna “behind the scenes,” its history, and its secrets. Find out with our Austria Guides what makes Vienna so unique, laugh and marvel with us – and explore the most charming city in the world and the way of life of the Viennese with all your senses.
