Kertnerstrasse Street

Kertnerstrasse is located in the heart of Vienna. It is considered the most ideal street for shopping. This pedestrian street, named after the southern Austrian province of Carinthia, is the site of the most famous brands and brands adjacent to jewelry salons and luxury watch shops.

Begins Kertnerstrasse in the south from Charles Square and ends at Stefan Square, also closed to travel by car. The oldest building here is the Esterhazy Palace, which now houses a casino and a private therapist's office. Opposite the building of the Vienna Opera is the famous hotel "Sacher", where you must try the famous cake "Original Sacher-torte" or take a chocolate bath in the Spa-salon.

A little further down the street is the Maltese Baroque Church, opened in 1998 after a long restoration. And at the intersection with the street Graben is a log of the XV century, studded with nails. It is believed that every blacksmith who left Vienna had to hammer a nail into this log for happiness. If you go here for shopping, you should visit the department store "Stefl", which sells the latest collections of famous fashion houses in Europe. In addition to the department store on the street there are well-known shops of clothing, accessories, glass, the Svarovski brand store, several hotels and several small cafes offering delicious Viennese pastries.
