Vienna Ferris Wheel

Vienna from Above: The Vienna Giant Ferris Wheel has been spinning above the Prater since 1897, offering a view of the city from a height of nearly 65 meters. Did you know that it was almost completely destroyed by fire during World War II? In 1947, it reopened with only 15 cars instead of the original 30. Today, you can explore this Viennese landmark with the EasyCityPass.
