Free but need ID to enter. Need to join free tour inside to get access to most places. Our tour guide raved on about his ideas of democracy rather than stick to succinct historical lecture. View from cafe on roof is mediocre, but cafe area without view is very spacious, relaxing and air conditioned.

(Translated by Google) Very incompetent staff. (Original) Sehr inkompetentes Personal.

The interior can only be visited on a guided tour, which are free, but require registration online. I was able to book my spot one day out, but if you require a specific time, you might need to do it further out. The building is an interesting mix of historic and modern in a fairly ageless style. The 55-min tour is about the right duration.

A very beautiful piece of art, the Greek statues and the building designed in the shape of the Parthenon and the large statue of Athena in front of it, it is very beautiful.

Came on national day and waited un the line about 40min, the guide was free and explained both in German and English. Really appreciate it since in Italy, Spain they don't do this and in Romania tye price is really high for a tour. Will come back for sure.

The Austrian Parliament Building (German: Parlamentsgebäude, colloquially das Parlament) in Vienna is where the two houses of the Austrian Parliament conduct their sessions. The building is located on the Ringstraße boulevard in the first district Innere Stadt, near Hofburg Palace and the Palace of Justice. It was built to house the two chambers of the Imperial Council (Reichsrat), the bicameral legislature of the Cisleithanian (Austrian) part of the Austro-Hungarian Empire. Since its construction, the Parliament Building has been the seat of these two houses, and their successors—the National Council (Nationalrat) and the Federal Council (Bundesrat)—of the Austrian legislature. The foundation stone was laid in 1874; the building was completed in 1883. The architect responsible for its Greek Revival style was Theophil Hansen. He designed the building holistically, aiming to have each element harmonizing with all the others. He was therefore also responsible for the interior decoration, such as statues, paintings, furniture, chandeliers, and numerous other elements. Hansen was honored by Emperor Franz Joseph with the title of Freiherr (Baron) after its completion. Following heavy damage and destruction in World War II, most of the interior has been restored to its original splendour. The parliament building covers over 13,500 square meters, making it one of the largest structures on Ringstraße. It contains over one hundred rooms, the most important of which are the Chambers of the National Council, the Federal Council, and the former Imperial House of Representatives (Abgeordnetenhaus). The building also includes committee rooms, libraries, lobbies, dining rooms, bars and gymnasiums. One of the building's most famous features is the Pallas Athena fountain in front of the main entrance, built by Carl Kundmann after plans from Hansen, from 1898 to 1902 and it is a notable Viennese tourist attraction. The Parliament Building is the site of important state ceremonies, most notably the swearing-in ceremony of the President of Austria and the state speech on National Day each October 26. The building is closely associated with the two parliamentary bodies, as is shown by the use of the term Hohes Haus as a metonym for "Parliament". Parliamentary offices spill over into nearby buildings, such as the Palais Epstein.

The outside is beautiful and Roman inspired. I do think that at night it is well lit and a great photo opportunity. This can be seen together with the Rathaus.

Highly recommend! We didn’t get to see the inside of the Parliament House - there’s a Free guided tour - however registration is required. We didn’t have our ID on us so we couldn’t do the guided tour and access the inside of the building. However the exterior itself was worthwhile the visit.

The architectural style of ancient Rome and the statue of Athena is a very good place to take pictures. I think every person who comes to Vienna to visit B will come to a place. If the weather is good, the photos taken will be very beautiful.

(Translated by Google) The Parrrrrrrlameeent !!!! The building of the laws. A dream ... but you never see anyone there except metal scaffolding and nets ... well ... anyway. It's like every place in Vienna, a more or less clean place that stands on the street ... yay ... car noise ... every day ... no idea and where the Sandler are driven away every day. Great! I like the place. (Original) Das Parrrrrrrlameeent!!!! Das Gebäude der Gesetze. Ein Traum... jedoch sieht man dort nie jemanden außer Metallgerüste und Netze... naja... wie dem auch sei.

Ich mag den Ort.

(Translated by Google) Superb building, seat of the Austrian Parliament, built around the nineteenth century with a style that perfectly recalls Greek neoclassicism. Too bad that it is completely under renovation and that the yard makes it really not very visible. Leaving only partially visible what must be his majestic beauty. (Original) Stupendo edificio sede del Parlamento Austriaco edificato all'incirca nel XIX secolo con uno stile che richiama perfettamente il neoclassicismo greco. Peccato che sia completamente in ristrutturazione e che il cantiere lo renda veramente poco visibile. Lasciando intravedere solo parzialmente quella che deve essere la sua maestosa bellezza.

Very beautiful on the outside. It’s closed for renovations for the next year or so, so you can not go inside. Well worth a stop just to see the architecture on the outside.

The parliament is beautiful. The statues have so many details (impressive muscle definition and detail. There are even veins!). The fountain at the front is impressive. That's what I loved about Vienna. Wherever you look, there are impressive architectures and arts.

definitly worth a visit...

(Translated by Google) Impressive neoclassical building. With luxurious interior. The night has amazing lighting. At Christmas you can often see an ice rink set up in front of it. In general, the courtyard is very impressive and reminds something of ancient Greece. (Original) Επιβλητικό νεοκλασικό κτίριο. Με πολυτελές εσωτερικό. Το βράδυ έχει καταπληκτικό φωτισμό.

Very interesting building, combining the old with the new. A beautiful demonstration of how the two can co-exist. We had a tour and the guide was very well informed sticking to facts and not letting her own opinions muddy her responses when answering tricky questions like the ones about Austrian neutrality (they were allowed to be independent again in 1955 but the Soviets insisted they remain neutral. Yes they are part of the EU but not part of NATO - so you see how tricky things become). Very informative about how it all started in the mid nineteenth century and how so many countries/states all somehow managed to make decisions despite several obstacles (ask about the Czechs and their instruments). The tour was free and you can get them in German or in English. Thoroughly recommend this

(Translated by Google) It is very nice (Original) Es ist sehr schön

Currently under reconstruction but still very beautiful building on the outside. Worth visiting both during the day and night. Very close to the metro station.

The Austrian Parliament Building was currently under renovation and encircled by a fence. It houses the Chambers of the National Council, the Federal Council. The Parliament Building is the site of important state ceremonies, most notably the swearing-in ceremony of the President of Austria and the state speech on National Day each October 26. Those are according to Wikipedia!

Nothing to see here - under construction

Can go in on 26th of Oct, Austrian national Day. But u will have to wait few hours in a irregular queue :) to get into it. But trust me it worths giving a try ...

Our visit to the parliament was a pleasant surprise. The staff is simply amazing. They made sure we could visit the parliament even when the tour wasn't available at the time. Thank you so much to our guide ( He knows who he is) ! Two girls from Portugal ❤️

Looks beautiful bt currently under renovation so nothing to see

(Translated by Google) Too bad that everything is in restoration and its magnificence is not seen! (Original) Peccato che è tutto in restauro e non si veda la sua magnificenza!

Designed by Theophil von Hansen, its majestic facade and impressive interior reflect the nation's rich history and democratic traditions. Visitors can explore the building's chambers, including the National Council and Federal Council, while learning about Austria's political system and history through guided tours and exhibitions.

One of the most unique buildings you'll see in Vienna which look so differently from the usual architectural style. I bet it looks stunning on the inside too, but we had no clue that it can be visited for free. So make sure not to miss this opportunity!

As a connoisseur of both architecture and political history, I recently had the pleasure of visiting the Austrian Parliament Building in Vienna. This historic edifice, designed by the renowned architect Theophil Hansen in the 19th century, stands as a testament to the grandeur and intricacy of Greek Revival architecture. Upon arrival, the building's imposing facade, adorned with the Pallas Athena fountain, immediately commands attention. The fountain, an emblem of wisdom and strength, sets a tone of solemnity and respect befitting a house of governance. The exterior, with its Corinthian columns and detailed friezes, exudes an air of classical elegance, harmoniously blending with the urban landscape of Vienna. The interior of the Parliament is equally impressive. The halls and chambers are adorned with elaborate frescoes, sculptures, and paintings, each narrating a segment of Austria's rich political history. The Plenary Hall, where the National Council convenes, is particularly striking. Its spacious design, complemented by ample natural light, creates an atmosphere of transparency and openness, reflecting the democratic principles upon which the institution is founded. Guided tours offer insightful glimpses into the parliamentary proceedings and the building's history, making the visit not only visually captivating but also intellectually enriching. The blend of architectural beauty and historical significance makes the Austrian Parliament Building a must-visit for anyone interested in politics, history, or architecture. Overall, the Austrian Parliament Building is not just a center for legislative activity but a symbol of Austria's political heritage and architectural prowess. Its ability to encapsulate the past while functioning as a modern legislative space is nothing short of remarkable. This landmark serves as a proud reminder of Austria's democratic journey and its commitment to upholding the values of freedom and governance.

Very interesting building where you can find wonderful old one with many sculptures . also there is new one where you can move around while take pictures .

Loved the architecture from oustide of the parliament!

I'm sure the building is magnificent and the statue looked beautiful. I will say that it is under renovation, so it's probably not worth the trip if you are coming just for the building. See the photo. (Press like if this helped.)

It is one of the most astonishing buildings in Wien. Across the street there is garden which makes you relax. It was one of my best experiences in Wien

Huge pretty building

Nice building with romaine architecture. You can go around by taking a carriage ride

Really enjoyed our recent guided tour of the Austrian Parliament building Recommend to book in advance as it fills up If you are a fan of history, architecture and politics you are in for a treat 100% free - easily accessible - English or German - cafe on site downstairs and restaurant up stairs

It was actually in renovations when we strolled by, but it's still an immensely beautiful building. Too bad we couldn't get any closer.

Beautiful Greek style architecture, worth a walk past just to admire from the outside.

A magnificent building! There are also free public tours being offered, but they take place only on Monday, Wednesday and Friday as I understood. Nevertheless, even if you don't get the chance to go on a tour, the parliament is beautiful from the outside as well!

You can book a free guided tour, which is absolutely worth it. The building's architecture is stunning and you also get to sit in the actual auditoriums, can highly recommend!

Beautiful to see Parliament look very Monumental, Epic and also delicate in same time because rich design of facade with colonnades and sculptures. From 26 Octobre opened for visitors (was photos).

Amazing building with a monumental fountain.

Looks like antique greek building.

Important state ceremonies are held here, the president takes the oath. And the main attraction of the building is the sculptural composition of Pallas Athena with a fountain.

Amazing experience! A must visit for social scientists to understand the evolution of democracy in Austria. Waited 2 hours to get in but it was worth the wait.

looks very very nice i like it

The parliament building is very interesting to see - the juxtaposition of old and new is well done. Our visit was spoiled by the English-language tour on which we were booked vanishing, so 4 of us missed out. A staff member went above and beyond her duty to try to locate the group for us, but to no avail. Nevertheless, many thanks to her for trying.

It is amazing both from outside and from the inside. If you want to see more you have to register for a guided tour in advance. There is a nice restaurant too.

Go book a tour, if you're lucky to catch a spot! Wonderful architecture and full of not just historical infos and anecdotes. It's the cradle of Austrian democracy and worth a visit for everyone at any age. Fully recommended 👌

(Translated by Google) She hurts (Original) Ela teloa

Great experience, the renovation is perfect, they make an amazing contract between the old building and the now parts, every detail is beautiful, there's a restaurant and a balcony you can have a coffee and smoke, you can enter for free and to see the Parlament inside you can register in free tour in both English and Dutch language.

No flags in the entire city 0 love for their own nation. What a disgusting way to treat your country. 0/10

The Austria Parliament guided tour is a must-do for history enthusiasts, political buffs, and anyone interested in understanding the foundations of Austrian democracy. The knowledgeable guides, the stunning architecture, and the immersive experience make it a memorable journey that leaves you with a deeper appreciation for the country's political heritage. Throughout the tour, the guide shared captivating stories and anecdotes about notable figures, historical events, and the inner workings of the Austrian Parliament. They provided valuable insights into the democratic processes, making it accessible and understandable for visitors with varying levels of familiarity with politics.

My visit to the Austrian Parliament in 2018 was an enlightening and captivating experience that left a lasting impression on me. Nestled in the heart of Vienna, the Austrian Parliament building is a symbol of the country's rich history, political significance, and architectural brilliance. Stepping into the grand edifice, I was immediately struck by its stunning neo-Greek design, featuring majestic columns and intricate sculptures. The exterior exudes an aura of strength and dignity, befitting a place where important decisions that shape the nation's destiny are made. Inside, the guided tour provided an in-depth understanding of Austria's political system and the functioning of its parliamentary democracy. The knowledgeable guides were passionate about their country's governance, and their enthusiasm was infectious. They skillfully navigated us through the various chambers, halls, and corridors, recounting historical anecdotes and significant events that have shaped the nation's course. The highlight of the visit was undoubtedly witnessing a parliamentary session in progress. Being able to observe the lawmakers debating and exchanging ideas on critical issues firsthand was both insightful and inspiring. The sense of democratic participation was palpable, and it instilled a deep appreciation for the democratic values upheld by the Austrian people. The architectural marvels within the Parliament, such as the magnificent Pallas Athene Fountain and the impressive Hall of Pillars, were visually stunning and added to the sense of grandeur. Moreover, the Austrian Parliament is conveniently located near other prominent landmarks, making it an integral part of any sightseeing itinerary in Vienna. In conclusion, my visit to the Austrian Parliament was a rewarding and intellectually stimulating experience. It offers a unique opportunity to witness democracy in action and appreciate the historical and cultural significance of Austria's political landscape. For history enthusiasts, political buffs, and anyone seeking a deeper understanding of Austria's governance, the Austrian Parliament is an absolute must-visit destination. I wholeheartedly give it a five-star rating for the enriching and memorable experience it provided.

One of the more beautiful House of Parliament in Europe. Perhaps not more the the House in London, but definitely more impressive than the one in Paris.

A building site. as another review mentions, it's set to reopen in a few years time. a lot of Vienna seems to be under construction. maybe give Vienna a miss until 2021 ??‍♂️

It is a beautiful neoclassical and elegant building in the centre of the city; they offer tours and it is worth it as if you think the architecture is rather stunning; the interior are not far behind; plus the tour guide is very knowledgeable and friendly pointing out at the little things that you would otherwise ignore.

Amazing greek revival building. Great plaza. Looked to be a faithful reproduction of the Parthenon in Athens. Was really good visit!

Romantic baustelle. :) But considering the work they invested into soon it will be in its old glory again.

The building is under renovation, but it impresses by its greatness

(Translated by Google) It is the Parliament building adjacent to the Vienna City Hall. The statue of the goddess Athens stands out. The ancient Greek temple-style building is named after the democratic Greek. Guided tours are also held, but they will be closed during the assembly.
