Grinzing, Wine district in Döbling, Vienna, Austria

Located in the northwest of Vienna, Grinzing extends over 613 hectares of land with forested ridges from the Vienna Woods and slopes covered in vineyards.

The settlement first appeared in documents from 1114 as Grinzigan and remained under the control of Klosterneuburg Monastery from the 14th until the 19th century.

Local wine taverns, known as Heurigen, maintain the tradition of serving fresh wine and regional food while musicians perform traditional Viennese songs.

The cemetery of Grinzing contains the graves of notable figures including composer Gustav Mahler and writer Thomas Bernhard near the parish church.

The Habsburgwarte observation tower stands on Hermannskogel, the highest point in Vienna at 542 meters above sea level, marking the center of land surveying.
