Full Description
The Prater - a centerpiece of Viennese history as a reflection of changing times
The Prater represents like no other place the history of Vienna and its growth into the modern metropolis of today. The opening of the Prater in 7 under Emperor Josef II marked the beginning of a new era. From then on, the imperial hunting grounds were open to all Viennese citizens for recreation and pleasure, for walks, musical performances as well as eating, drinking, and dancing.
From optical curiosities to soccer, balloon flights and rockets, May Day and flower parades, all novelties were presented to a large audience for the first time here - in the Wurstelprater amusement park, in theaters, cinemas, variety shows, zoos, circuses, at the World's Fair in 873, in the vivarium, planetarium, or stadium. In the Prater, the major themes of modern life are condensed: the relationship between nature and city man and animal modern technology and the human body.
