The Ringstrasse
From the Opera to the University
How long has Vienna's Ringstrasse actually existed, and what stood in its place before? Did Emperor Franz Joseph give the Ringstrasse to the Viennese as a gift for strolling, or did it actually serve quite a different purpose? How were the opulent and costly buildings financed, and who were the first residents of the Ringstrasse palaces? I will answer these and many other questions on our walk from the State Opera to the University — along with one or two fascinating anecdotes.
