Evening reception at Vienna City Hall on Tue, 21 July 2009
|
Meeting Point: 7:30 pm, main entrance City Hall (Lichtenfelsgasse 2)
Admission free The Vienna City Hall The City Hall is one of the most splendid amongst the numerous monumental buildings along Vienna's Ringstrasse. Designed by Friedrich Schmidt (1825-1891), it was erected between 1872 and 1883. The architecture of the Ringstrasse is dominated by historicism. In Historicism various stylistic elements of the past were combined into a style in its own right. Friedrich Schmidt however orientated himself just on one particular epoch. The City Hall was built in gothical style, with a tower similar to gothic cathedrals. The gothic era saw the growth of the cities and the emergence of an urban burgeoisie. http://www.wien.gv.at/english/cityhall/ |
