Photo: Stephansdom Cathedral Picture Vienna Austria

The view of the incredible building of the Stephansdom Cathedral that stands in the centre of downtown Vienna, Austria but it is a hard picture to capture without the many tourists.

The Stephansdom Cathedral in the downtown core of Vienna, Austria was near devastation during World War II but due to its importance to the city, it was reconstructed with the aid of the Regional States. This cathedral was originally built in 1147 and has been the centre of Vienna for centuries, still being one of the most popular sights to see while touring through Vienna, Austria.

The beautiful mosaic tiled roof is clearly visible in this picture along with the incredible architecture of the Gothic tower that stands at approximately 136.4 meters high. These are two of the main attractions of the Stephansdom and for those who are adventurous, you can climb up the stone spiral staircase to the top of the Gothic tower. This is not recommended for everyone as the climb makes you feel very claustrophobic as the stairwell is very narrow and resting stops do not exist. When you do reach the top, the scenery is breathtaking and you get the best view of the tiled roof from here. ... continue below the picture...
