The Gloriette

add to my travel plan

Today, Café Gloriette is housed in this splendid building. Delicious pastries and a magnificent view of Vienna await you here.And every Sunday morning, there is a brunch with live music ranging from the classics to jazz.

The Gloriette was built in 1775. Today, the inscription of the middle part of the building still bears witness: "JOSEPHO II. AUGUSTO ET MARIA THERESIA IMPERANTIB. MDCCLXXV" (Erected 1775 under the reign of Emperor Joseph and Empress Maria Theresia). Even then, one appreciated beautiful views - and for that reason a 20-meter-high observation terrace was created (accessible only via a spiral staircase). We strongly advise you not to forget your camera!
