What You Can Experience at the Danube Tower
At the top of the tower, visitors enjoy both indoor and outdoor observation areas designed
for comfortable sightseeing in all seasons. The open-air terrace delivers unobstructed
360-degree views, while the enclosed spaces allow relaxed viewing regardless of weather.
Informational displays help identify Vienna’s landmarks and surrounding landscapes.
Turm Café
The Turm Café is a popular place to pause and enjoy refreshments with a view.
During normal café opening hours, tables are allocated directly on site and cannot be reserved
in advance. If you plan to visit for brunch, please note that brunch is available
by table reservation only and must be booked ahead of time.
Turm Restaurant
For guests seeking a more refined dining experience, the Turm Restaurant offers meals high
above the city. Access to the restaurant is strictly by table reservation only.
Walk-in access is not possible, so advance booking is essential for all restaurant visits.
