Look into our projects: A trip to the Donauturm

On the occasion of the 60th birthday of a very special Viennese – our Danube Tower – two course groups of the project InterSpace – Basisbildung für Jugendliche a very special trip. A course participant reports:

"Last week we went on a trip to the Danube Tower. We took the U-6 to the Neue Donau station and then took the bus to the Donaupark. We went for a walk there and saw some animals. Then we took the elevator up to the tower. The elevator. At the top we had a great view. We saw parks, lots of cars, houses, little people, mountains, the airport, the mosque, the Unocity, the Danube and lots of trees. There is a very expensive restaurant on the tower that rotates very slowly. After we took lots of photos, we went back down in the elevator. This elevator was very interesting and cool. I won't forget it anytime soon. 😊“
