Vienna - take a walk on the ugly side
Everyone knows Vienna is beautiful. Palaces, opera houses, elegant streets – but what about the “other” Vienna?
On this guided walk, cultural critic and storyteller, Eugene, highlights some of the city’s most questionable architectural and design choices. Together, we’ll look at buildings that divide opinion, raise eyebrows or spark debate about fashion, planning and taste. Participants are invited to vote on each stop – ugly or misunderstood masterpiece?
This is a witty, provocative journey through Vienna’s failures and eccentricities - from bad planning decisions to postmodern experiments. Through humour, you’ll discover how “ugly” can sometimes reveal a new kind of beauty.
Beauty can be boring – but ugly never is.
