Created as a meadow area on the edge of the Prater, a walk through the Pratercottage in Leopoldstadt <\/strong>reveals the contrasts of an upper middle-class society that could not be more drastic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How the physiologist Eugen Steinach<\/strong> tried to discover eternal life, where Egon Schiele <\/strong>moved into his first studio at the age of 17, where the first court officials learned to ride a bicycle and where Marianne Golz<\/strong> became the Righteous Among the Nations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Let’s take a look behind the facades of spectacular fin de si\u00e8cle villas<\/strong> with their eventful history and fascinating protagonists.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

To begin we explore luxurious rental villas<\/strong> for the Jewish upper middle class and gain an overview of the contrasting lives of their residents throughout the eventful history of the 20th century.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On our tour we meet outstanding personalities<\/strong> from the fields of art, medicine, science, politics and business. We review the secret operations of the Austrian resistance during the NAZI era, are guests of the toad-kisser Paul Kammerer and his widowed lover Alma Mahler and remember voyeuristic excesses in the Tiergarten am Sch\u00fcttel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Finally we expolore the unique clubhouse of today’s SV Schwarz-Blau, history of the development of Art Nouveau<\/strong> in Vienna and the beginning of cycling<\/strong> in Austria.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Quality<\/strong> is my highest priority and therefore the tours always take place target group oriented and in a relaxed atmosphere!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hint: bring your camera<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I am looking forward to meeting you!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
