The Heldenplatz is a spacious square near the former imperial palace of the Habsburg rulers. The square is named after two of Austria's most famous war heroes, who are honored with large equestrian statues.
Vienna's Cathedral, the Gothic Stephansdom, was built in the 14th century at the site of an earlier church, of which two towers were incorporated. The majestic south tower still rises high over the city center.
The Schatzkammer - the imperial treasury chamber of the Habsburg dynasty - has a magnificent display of imperial symbols of power and wealth such as gem-studded crowns, orbs, scepters, and coronation mantles.
The vast complex of the former imperial stables is now the site of a cluster of museums and cultural institutions as well as a number of cafés and shops, all arranged around an inviting inner courtyard.
