Verdict by age
Not a general rating. How each age band actually experiences it.
A quick look inside is fine at any age and costs nothing. The tower climb suits children from about seven who like stairs. With a toddler, walk in, look up, walk out and go for an ice cream.
The paid parts are what children ask for. The North Tower has a lift up to the Pummerin, the largest bell in Austria. The South Tower is a climb of 343 steps to a room with a view over the city. The catacombs are visited on a guided tour. Ticket prices for these were not listed on the pages we could read, so check at the counter inside.
Tips for the visit
- Take the North Tower lift with younger children and leave the 343 steps of the South Tower to the over-sevens.
- The catacombs tour has stairs on the way in and out and is not for strollers.
- Visiting times change for liturgical reasons, so do not build a tight schedule around it.
