Hietzing, Administrative district in Vienna, Austria

The 13th district of Vienna spans across western regions with three quarters of its territory consisting of parks, forests, and green spaces.

Archaeological discoveries from the Stone Age, including flint tools on Rosenhügel Hill, indicate early human settlements in this area dating back thousands of years.

The district contains the Schönbrunn Palace complex, which includes formal gardens, the oldest existing zoo in the world, and the Imperial Greenhouse.

Visitors can reach Hietzing through the U4 underground line, several tram connections, and bus routes, though the district features many steep streets.

The Hofpavillon, designed by Otto Wagner, served as a private subway station for the Habsburg imperial family to access their summer residence.
