Skywalk Spittelau, Glass footbridge in Spittelau district, Vienna, Austria.
Skywalk Spittelau is a pedestrian footbridge built entirely from glass, spanning across an urban area in the Spittelau district of Vienna. The transparent construction allows unobstructed views in all directions while creating an open walkway for foot traffic between different sections of the neighborhood.
The bridge was built in the 2010s to address growing demands for modern transportation connections in the district. It reflects Vienna's broader effort to improve pedestrian and commuter infrastructure across the city.
The glass structure represents modern Austrian engineering excellence while providing views of Vienna's architectural heritage and surrounding urban development.
Access to the bridge is convenient from Spittelau metro station, which connects easily to Vienna's public transport network. The structure is maintained year-round and remains accessible to pedestrians at all times.
The fully transparent panels create the sensation of walking suspended in open space as you cross the structure. This distinctive visual experience makes each crossing feel momentarily weightless and immersive.
