Heldenplatz Vienna 1010

Heldenplatz (Heroes Square) will go down in history as the scene of Hitler's speech to hundreds of thousands of cheering Austrians after the 1938 Anchluß or annexation which confirmed Austria as part of the Third Reich. Visit this huge windswept area after dark when the Neue Burg, the last addition to the Hofburg, is illuminated for maximum historic thrills. There are two magnificent equestrian statues of Prince Eugène of Savoy and Archduke Karl. From Heldenplatz there is access to two of Vienna's finest city parks— the Volksgarten and the Burggarten.
