SCHLOSS SCHOENBRUNN
Apart from being regarded as the City of Music because of its musical legacy, Vienna is also said to be
"The City of Dreams" because it was home to the world's first psycho-analyst – Sigmund Freud. The city's
roots lie in early Celtic and Roman settlements that transformed into a Medieval and Baroque city, and
then the capital of the Austro-Hungarian Empire. It is well known for having played an essential role as a
leading European music centre, from the great age of Viennese Classicism through the early part of the
20th century. The historic centre of Vienna is rich in architectural ensembles, including Baroque castles
and gardens, and the late-19th-century Ringstraße lined with grand buildings, monuments and parks.
The Danube is Europe's second-longest river, after the Volga River, and also the longest river in the European Union region. It is located in Central and Eastern Europe.
