The Donauturm was opened in 1964 and is 252 meters tall. The building structure is made of steel and concrete and weighs 17,000 tons. The tower covers an area of approximately 84 square metres.
The tower offers an exciting panoramic view over the ancient and new Vienna, the pre-alps and on over the Hungarian landscape. In only 35 seconds two lifts bring you up 165 m, directly to the two revolving restaurant platforms at 160 and 170 m.
One complete 360 ° rotation takes about 25 minutes.
