Even if you’re in European church overload, this is one cathedral you don’t want to skip. This location has functioned as the religious, cultural and geographic centre of Vienna for more than eight centuries, a history which can practically be traced through the basilica’s mish-mash of architectural styles. If you can believe it, there are even more legends surrounding this landmark than there are tourists, so taking a tour is strongly recommended, especially later in the day once the guided tour groups have passed through.
