What to expect

The Danube Tower is a 252-meter-tall tower in Vienna, offering a 360° panorama view of the city from its observation terrace at 155 meters high. The tower has two revolving restaurants, one at 161.2 meters and the other at 169.4 meters, providing a varied view over the Austrian capital and the Danube River. The tower is situated in the middle of the Donaupark and is a popular destination for visitors. It also features a 165-meter-high slide designed by object artist Carsten Höller, which offers a unique way to view Vienna from above. The tower's interior has been restored to its original 1960s style, but with modern technology. The observation terrace is wheelchair-accessible via an elevator, and there are also ramps to allow wheelchair users to enjoy the view. The tower has a restaurant and café at the top, as well as a beer garden and souvenir shop at the foot of the tower
