Why is the question of city lighting still relevant today, how important was and is green space for a city, and what measures can be taken for affordable housing? What impact does climate change have on a metropolis like Vienna, and what measures can be taken to maintain the goal of a livable city?
We are amazed at how sustainability issues have left their mark on the city’s history and continue to influence its development today.
With this tour, we offer you a weather-independent opportunity to discover the topic of sustainability. Depending on your preference, different focal points can be set.
