Spanish Riding School Architectural Guided Tour

- Explore the Spanish Riding School on a 80-minute guided tour in English or German, led by an expert who decodes the building beyond its performances. - Step inside the Winter Riding School to study its Late Baroque proportions, designed to accommodate both riders and the precise movements of Lipizzaner stallions. - Climb into the 250-year-old roof structure and see how original wooden trusses still support the vast hall without any modern reinforcements. - Access areas most people never see, including the attic levels and hidden viewpoints, offering a new perspective on Vienna’s historic inner district. - **Fun fact:** The Spanish Riding School has operated continuously since 1572, making it the oldest riding school in the world still practicing classical horsemanship.
