Habsburgwarte

Local nameHabsburgwarte
LocationVienna, Austria

The Habsburgwarte is a 27 metre-tall tower that stands on Hermannskogel hill in Vienna. It was built by architect Franz von Neumann to resemble a medieval tower.

The construction of the Habsburgwarte was funded by the Österreichische Touristenklub to mark the Emperor Franz Joseph I’s 40th jubilee in 1888. It was completed in 1889.

In 1972, the tower was listed. Today, it is used as a lookout. On weekends in summer, the Austrian Tourist Club opens the tower to members of the public for an entrance fee.
