    Vienna has lot of beautiful gardens, it’s like necklace full of “green pearls”. One of the most interesting gardens had the golden statue of Strauss. One hour walk along the garden is very calming experience.

    This monument stands in tribute to Johannes Strasse Jr, a 19th century Austrian composer well known for his dance music, especially waltzes. The monument is a gilded sculpture of Strasse playing his violin and as such is one of the most iconic monuments in the city, judging by the queue of people wanting a photograph with it. The monument is located in the tranquil Stadtpark and is one of the more popular statues in both the park and the city.

    A very pleasing and enjoyable monument to the composer. The gilded stature is almost gaudy, but is balanced by an ornate yet understated structure. A fitting monument.

    Amazing monument. The park is peaceful and quiet, enough benches to enjoy the atmosphere and the monument. Take a look also at the flower clock nearby, you won't be disappointed.

  • 5/5 Irem G. 10 months ago on Google • 267 reviews
    A little shiny, Golden-covered monument. It's a nice but crowded corner (many tourists waiting for to take photo of the statue) into the stadtpark.

  • 5/5 ZY “Lizzy G. 7 months ago on Google • 119 reviews
    Great golden statue, well maintained area. A great photo spot for tourists. A few benches nearby to rest and take in the monument and the surrounding area. I sat on the grass and did a little sketch in the shade. [No tickets needed]

    I visited on such a beautiful day. The statue looked nice and shiny. Many tourist were taking photos. The vibes in the park was amazing. I had such a good time.

  • 5/5 Neil F. 2 years ago on Google
    A great little park, and a surprisingly brilliant statue. (Not the figure of Strauss himself, but the gate about him.) Well worth a visit.

  • 4/5 Bernadette S. 1 year ago on Google • 8 reviews
    Maybe I’m not big fan of composer. The monument just so so, but located inside the park and surrounded by restaurant, bar and another monuments. Which is make it nicer. Better visit here during the day when the sun still up so you can spend more time to walk around and enjoy the park also better for pictures.

    Johann Strauss Monument in Stradt Park is lovely to visit. It is stunning covered in gold. The park made a nice place to visit.

  • 3/5 Lorenzo F. 3 years ago on Google
    Beautiful monument, attracts huge amounts of visitors. But the real sensation is the beautiful Stadtpark, with all its monuments, of which the one for Johann Strauß is just one of them. Take a stroll around the park, enjoy the green, the children by the pond, the big trees. And the paths along the river Wien! A delightful place to stay for one hour or two.

    Stadt park, or the city's park is a wonderful small park in the middle of Vienna, right next to the historical center and the ancient wall

  • 5/5 Komgrit Lo (. 11 months ago on Google
    Very nice park. It’s a free park but the park may have activities for listening the music and eating food which require tickets to visit from time to time.

  • 5/5 Димитър �. 11 months ago on Google
    The monument to the composer Johann Strauss is located in the Stadtpark in Vienna. One station from Saint Stephen's Cathedral on the U3 metro line or one station from Vienna Mitte station again with the U3 metro line. The composer is represented upright playing the violin. The statue is made of bronze and gilded on top. GPS- 48.20385,16.37910 About 250 meters from the monument in the south-west direction outside the Stadtpark is the Beethoven monument. GPS- 48.20185,16.37715

    The park is very very beautiful, it was fun to walk there. The monument is not very special. But the experience in the park was really good. There were yoga and tai classes and such, it was cool.

  • 5/5 Denny M. 1 year ago on Google
    Gorgeous monument in a lovely park in the center of the city. Music was playing nearby and people were enjoying their time on benches or on the grass.

  • 3/5 Danna B. 1 year ago on Google
    There's a repeating element in Viennese architecture and monuments that I've noticed which is incorporating gold elements in the center of an otherwise completely white or white and green sculpture. I like how it directs the eye of the unassuming tourist (me!) towards the main theme of the statue, so you can gain the most from the statue even if you have no art education. I really appreciate it. As for this specific work - it's beautiful but not too much for my taste.

  • 5/5 Alex Z. 1 year ago on Google

    Edmund Hellmer's golden Strauss Monument is the most popular photographic subject in Vienna. The gilded bronze monument of Johann Strauss II was unveiled to the public on 26 June 1921 and is framed by a marble relief made by Edmund Hellmer. On this occasion the Vienna Philharmonic Orchestra played the Blue Danube Waltz, composed by Strauss.

    Beautiful as always. I have previously seen it at night, lit up. This time I saw it in the early morning and it was superb. peaceful, quiet and full of atmosphere. Vienna has the most beautiful and well maintained parks free and open to the public, with gorgeous plants and flowers, like a little oasis every few hundred meters. This park and this statue are very special. Dont miss it if you have a chance to see it!
