Schweizergarten, Public park in Landstrasse district, Vienna, Austria

The Schweizergarten spans 115,000 square meters featuring ponds with rock formations, fountains, an alpine garden, and numerous exotic trees.

Originally named Maria Josefa Park in 1904, the space was renamed Schweizergarten in 1919 to honor Swiss humanitarian aid after World War I.

The park includes the 'La Note Bleue' Chopin Monument, installed in 2010 to commemorate the composer's 200th birthday and his time in Vienna.

Visitors can access multiple playgrounds, fitness equipment, football fields, table tennis tables, and two dedicated dog zones throughout the park.

A silver metallic column by Viennese artist Heinrich Deutsch stands in the park to mark the foundation of Austria's Second Republic in 1945.
