250. Birthday, Beethoven in Vienna a Private Afternoon Green Urban Hike
Duration
4 hours
Overview
-
For Beethoven’s 250. birthday we visit some of his favorite and most inspiring suburban summer retreats – Nussdorf, Heiligenstadt, Grinzing and the Vienna Woods.
1802 in Heiligenstadt Ludwig realized losing his hearing. By then he only had written two Symphonies. The cozy summer retreat in Probusgasse contrasts sharply with the internal drama that took place here.
A panoramic bus-ride brings us up to Kahlenberg for the cities most beautiful vista.
A pleasant downhill hike passes vineyards, hidden garden tavernas and ends in one of Vienna’s most sought after residential areas.
Beethoven liked extensive walks and although it all looks different nowadays, the spirit can still be felt on the edge between city and nature.
Beethoven-Gang and Eroica-Gasse bring us back to Pfarrplatz where Ludwig spent one of his summers at Mayer am Pfarrplatz and the tour may open-end.
We do it like the locals do it and use public transportation (metro, bus and tram) for this afternoon experience.
