Timeline
15:42
Grab a pre-sunset beer and a snack at Gasthaus Kopp. It is a regional restaurant just a short walk from the tower, perfect for settling in before the main event.
16:12
Walk to the base of the Millennium Tower. Look up at the 51 floors of the commercial complex known as Millennium City. The tower is a poignant landmark of the district, and at this time of day, the low sun highlights its structure against the sky.
16:57
Head to the Museum Postsparkasse. This historic site is located in the small banking hall of the former Post Office Savings Bank building. The architecture is striking, and it serves as a great transition point into the city center.
17:27
Dine at Café Diglas. This famous traditional coffeehouse is equally good for a meal. The atmosphere is lively, and it is a reliable spot for dinner after the sun has set.
18:27
End the evening at Alt Wien. This cafe and bar sits on a medieval-looking lane, offering a foiky-bohemian atmosphere that feels like a time warp. It is open late, making it the perfect place to wind down.
Local tip
The walk from the tower to the museum is about 55 minutes. If you want to keep the evening shorter, take the U-Bahn or a taxi from the Millennium Tower to the city center near the Museum Postsparkasse.
