Let ivie guide you through the Karmeliterviertel
The Karmeliterviertel in the 2nd district is an authentic, unpolished neighborhood with a Jewish history that is still very much tangible today. A large proportion of Vienna’s Jewish population lived in the 2nd district up until the Holocaust. Today, the Karmeliterviertel is once again the epicenter of Jewish life in Vienna. The Karmelitermarkt is the heart of the neighborhood and is all about culinary indulgence. A diverse and exciting bar scene around the Karmelitermarkt shows just how hip the district is. The walk starts at Schwedenplatz in Vienna’s city center.

It is just a stone’s throw across the Danube Canal from the starting point at Schwedenplatz to the Karmeliterviertel. The tour takes walkers along Taborstraße to the Karmelitermarkt, which is home to market stalls selling fruit, vegetables and flowers as well as numerous eateries. The district is also home to a quirky museum, the Vienna Museum of Crime. The walk ends at the Augarten, where it is worth visiting the Augarten Vienna Porcelain Manufactory and the MuTh – Concert Hall of the Vienna Boys’ Choir.
