Sunset over Vienna at the Donauturm
The Donauturm is one of the most beautiful places to experience sunsets over Vienna. At more than 150 metres above the ground, visitors can enjoy views of the Danube, the Donaupark and the Vienna skyline – from the observation deck, the Turm Café or the Turm Restaurant.

Panoramic Sunset Views Over Vienna
The outdoor observation terrace and the glazed indoor terrace offer spectacular 360° panoramic views over Vienna during sunset. The evening light bathes the city and the Danube in warm colors, creating a unique atmosphere high above Vienna.
Sundowner at Turm Café
Located 160 metres above Vienna, the Turm Café is a unique place to enjoy a relaxing sundowner with panoramic views over the city. Watch the sunset while enjoying coffee, cocktails or non-alcoholic drinks. As the Turm Café slowly rotates, the view changes continuously throughout your visit.
The Sunset Happy Hour 2026 has ended. It is planned to return in 2027. Information on dates, times and the offer will be published on this page in due course.
Dinner with a View at Turm Restaurant
For everyone who wants to complete the evening with a special dinner, Turm Restaurant at 170 m is the ideal choice. Austrian cuisine, selected wines and constantly changing views over Vienna turn the sunset into a culinary experience. Arrival between 18:00 and 19:30 is especially recommended to fully enjoy the transition from day to evening.
Experience Vienna by Night
After sunset, a new spectacle begins: Vienna by night. From the illuminated Prater to the lights of the city centre, the Danube Tower shows Vienna in a special atmosphere. Those who stay longer experience not only the sunset, but also the transformation from golden evening light to a sparkling night skyline.
Plan Your Sunset Visit to the Danube Tower
A sunset visit to the Danube Tower can be ideally combined with several experiences: the outdoor viewing terrace, indoor terrace, Turm Café, Turm Restaurant, the Danube Tower Slide or the Donau Shop. For Turm Restaurant, we recommend reserving a table in advance; tickets for the Danube Tower can be conveniently booked online.
