Guided tours in German and English provide an insight into the oldest university in the German-speaking and cultural area. Highlights of the tour are the arcaded courtyard laid out as "Campo Santo", the large ballroom (subject to availability) with reproductions of Gustav Klimt's ceiling paintings and the large reading room of the university library.
