WHAT YOU SHOULD NOT MISS IN THE 7TH DISTRICT OF VIENNA

We continue our blog series with perhaps the most diverse district: Neubau. It's not easy to limit ourselves to just a few highlights here, as there is so much to see. However, what you should definitely not cross off your must-see list, we will tell you today.

STROLL AT SPITTELBERG

The Spittelberg district is a lovingly revitalized Biedermeier area with countless beautiful buildings and is perfect for a spring walk. Due to its numerous restaurants, bars, and cozy Viennese pubs with typical gardens, Spittelberg is often referred to as a "village in the city." How nice that we can take advantage of this offer again starting today. This neighborhood simply has a unique and special charm. In our opinion, it is a must-see. Our tip: The small, romantic alleyways are also particularly worth seeing. So, be sure not to miss them!

MELANGE IN CAFE WESTEND

We at AKKADIA love coffee, which is why we can't miss giving a tip here: Café Westend – a typical institution of the Viennese coffee house scene. With its high, stucco-decorated ceilings, this café has a very special flair and ambiance. So if you feel the urge for a break after strolling along Mariahilfer Straße, be sure to stop by at Westend. As a little refreshment, we recommend a classic Viennese Melange with a big piece of apple strudel.

PARADISE FOR ARCHITECTURE LOVERS

New construction has architecturally quite a lot to offer; particularly many Gründerzeit houses and significant buildings can be found there, such as the Volkstheater or the Palais Trautson. There are also some special churches, such as the Altlerchenfelder parish church, which is of great art-historical significance as it represents a transitional work between classicism and historicism. One must not forget the MuseumsQuartier, which perfectly combines old buildings with modern architecture and, with over 60 cultural institutions, is a true mecca for art and culture enthusiasts.

MAIN LIBRARY AT THE BELT

We are particularly pleased that the main library at Urban Loritz Square is allowed to reopen. The library offers a wide range of various media, great events, and readings. Unfortunately, the latter two have to be put on hold for now, but book lovers should definitely keep this in mind. Afterwards, you should also pay a visit to Café Oben. From there, you have a wonderful view of the colorful hustle and bustle at the Gürtel.

SPACE FOR CULTURE ...

And because the 7th district is primarily known for its trendy restaurants, we don't want to withhold our absolute favorite spot from you: Marks on Neustiftgasse. In an incredibly cozy atmosphere, everyone can find something to enjoy here. Marks offers freshly prepared dishes made from regional products, and both vegans and meat lovers have a wide selection – for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. So: If you're in the area, let yourself be pampered taste-wise at Marks! As you can see, the 7th district with its unique eateries and diverse cultural offerings is simply dreamy. Are you considering relocating here? Then we might have just the right place for you.
