The long history of arts and culture in Austria give it many rich historic attractions and museums, all within reach of your holiday rental. The Kunsthistorisches Museum Wien, a fine-arts museum housing the Habsburgs’ art collections and antiquities in a 19th-century museum, and Melk Abbey, a lavish 11th-century baroque abbey overlooking the River Danube, are both must-see attractions for history buffs. You could also visit the MuseumsQuartier, a baroque district with stunning buildings and unique museums, and Golden Roof, an elaborate emperor’s building and museum with artefacts of Innsbruck history.
Austrian cities are packed with iconic landmarks and must-see attractions that delight travellers from all over the world. Holiday lettings can be found near such icons as Schönbrunn Palace, an 18th-century baroque palace with lavish interiors and rococo ceremonial rooms, and the Belvedere Palace, an 18th-century palace with artistic masterpieces spanning from the Middle Ages to present day. You can also visit the Fortress Hohensalzburg, an 11th-century fortress on a city hilltop with spectacular views of the Alps, or Mirabell Palace, an opulent 17th-century palace with ornamental gardens and concert ballrooms. For a cultural excursion, visit the Vienna State Opera and enjoy classic operas and period decor.
Austria is easily accessible by air, rail and car. Flights are available from all over Europe, with connecting flights coming from other countries, and trains run through the area, offering beautiful views of the landscape. If you prefer the flexibility to travel on your own schedule, the well-maintained motorways make cars a great option.
If you’re travelling with the kids, you’ll find plenty of fun and interesting attractions geared toward families. Holiday homes are available near kid-friendly locations like Prater, a public park with an iconic Ferris wheel that dates back to the 19th century, and the Schönbrunn Zoo, an animal park with exotic species in naturalistic habitats. The Viennese Giant Ferris Wheel, a permanent fairground ride with wooden cabins and dining, and the Spanish Riding School, a classical equestrian school with the white Lipizzaner stallion shows, are also great for kids. For an educational experience, visit the Museum of Natural History Vienna, a palatial, 19th-century museum with dinosaur specimens and meteorite artefacts.
The elegance and beauty of Austria make it the perfect choice for a romantic holiday with your loved one. Holiday lettings can be found near romantic locations like the Leopold Museum, a modern museum with a vast collection of Schiele, Klimt and Kokoschka masterpieces and a cafe, and the Kunst Haus Wien Museum Hundertwasser, an art museum focusing on the works of Friedensreich Hundertwasser. Secession, a museum of contemporary art with a dome of gilded laurels and masterpieces of renowned artists, and Mozart’s Birthplace – a historic house that is now a museum with guided tours highlighting Wolfgang Mozart’s life – are also intimate locations to visit.
