So what will we visit on this unusual stroll: Turnhalle in Rudolfsheim, Kindertransportdenkmal in Westbahnhof, art project from Kunst im Öffentlicher Raum, Haus des Meeres, bomb damage on Akademie (with inscription), human rights table, Albertinaplatz Hrdlicka sculpture, list of all Jewish victims in front of Nationalbank, Holocaust Memorial on Judenplatz, central synagogue to remember two terrorist attacks, Wiesenthal Centre, resistance monument on Morzinplatz (with museum/archive), and a Stolperstein.

If you visit Munich, Berlin or Nürnberg, you can explore second world war in lots of detail. But if you visit Vienna, you can explore Mozart in lots of detail. This is a missed opportunity, and enables the far-right Freedom Party to their astonishing continuing popularity in Austria.
