The Third Man Tour

The Third Man chase scene with OrsonWelles as Harry Lime through the Vienna sewers is one of the most famous in the history of film. It is in these very same sewers that Vienna’s waste water enterprise is making history of another sort. Learn more about the sewer’s fascination past and present.

Four tours will be offered on Tuesday, September 14th, 2027

“Heurigen” Evening

In Vienna, a “Heuriger” is both the wine from the previous year’s harvest and the tavern where it’s served. On Monday, September 13th, 2027 join us for a relaxed get-together at an authentic wine tavern within the city that may be urban in address, but has the welcoming charm of a picturesque village.
