Trailing American Associations with Vienna–From New York to San Francisco
|
|
| What does Vienna’s Second District have in common with Brooklyn? What links Johann Strauss Jr. to Boston, Massachusetts, or Adolf Loos to Chicago? How is the Prater amusement park connected to the Wild West, Vienna’s tram system to the Bronx, the Hotel Sacher to West Side Story, and Empress Zita’s funeral to Mark Twain? And what brings Karlsplatz into conversation with Hollywood? American connections with Vienna are surprisingly abundant. This unconventional tour sets out to uncover them—designed for Anglophiles, expats, history buffs, and curious visitors alike. Discover Vienna during the post-war Allied occupation, trace the footsteps of U.S. celebrities visiting the city, and learn how the American musical and jazz scene found its way into Viennese culture. Visit film locations, hear anecdotes with a transatlantic twist, and enjoy stories you are unlikely to find in any standard Vienna guidebook. |
