Habsburgwarte on the Hermannskogel

Highlight • Monument

At 542 meters, the Hermannskogel is the highest mountain in Vienna. Located on the border with Lower Austria, it can be reached quickly from Döbling, Vienna's 19th district. It is definitely worthwhile to come up here in autumn or winter. If the view is not clouded by fog, you can enjoy a beautiful view over Vienna.

Stefaniewarte on the Kahlenberg

Highlight • Monument

Many people associate the term “Kahlenberg” with things like the radio mast on the 484 m high summit and the Stephaniewarte, but also the St. Joseph's Church, where you can also find the great relief commemorating the relief army that liberated Vienna and the large terrace with the fantastic panoramic view of Vienna. The Kahlenberg is therefore a real highlight in Vienna.

View of Vienna from the Kahlenberg

Highlight • Viewpoint

There is always something going on! But the view over Vienna makes up for the sometimes short wait for a good photo spot. Immediately next to it, there is the possibility of a refreshment in the café. After a long day at work there is something about sitting here with a drink and letting the city at the foot of the mountain be a city.

St. Joseph's Church on the Kahlenberg

Highlight • Religious Site

St. Joseph's Church on the Kahlenberg
The Church of St. Joseph is a Roman Catholic branch church of the parish of Kahlenbergerdorf on the Kahlenberg
The origins of the church go back to the Camaldolese monastery that used to be on the Kahlenberg. The Camaldolese were settled on the Kahlenberg at the time of Ferdinand II and began building the Hermitage there in 1628/29. The cornerstone of the church was laid on August 10, 1629, which was largely completed by 1639. During the second Turkish siege of Vienna, the church was destroyed by the Turks on July 8, 1683. Although the fathers returned in the same year, the reconstruction or new construction of the church was not completed until 1734. In the course of the Josephine church reforms, the order was dissolved around 50 years later (1782). The court war councilor Leopold von Kriegl bought the church and most of the buildings of the Hermitage on April 14, 1783 for 28,550 guilders. After he initially wanted to turn the church building into a dance hall, he later repaired the church or rebuilt it and had it elevated to the status of a bar. On December 21, 1783, it was rededicated by the provost of the Klosterneuburg Floridus monastery.

View of Vienna from the Kahlenberg

Highlight • Viewpoint

There is hardly a better view of the city than from up here, especially on a clear and sunny day.

Of course, this place is also touristic and can be quite crowded at times, especially when tourist buses unload their cargo for a tour. But no matter, just don't fret, everyone has the right to watch it! Instead, relax and enjoy the view, be it day or night, summer or winter.

The Cossack Memorial commemorates the contribution of Ukrainian Cossacks to the liberation of Vienna from the Ottoman siege in 1683. It is located at Nasenweg in the 19th district and was ceremoniously unveiled on April 23, 2013.

December 11, 2022,Leopoldsberg - Kahlenberg - Hermannskogel
Hike again today with WV Wienerland. Leopoldsberg went to Hermannskogel, but climbed from Klosterneuburg-Weidling for a change. Also a very interesting round. In any case, the view from the Habsburg lookout point was better than the weather forecast. The wind was pretty strong at times though.
