25T65 Vienna at dusk: the Ring near Karlsplatz

By on

E64, V12.

I’ve a lot to do by day that I often forget about good conditions at sunset and beyond into dusk. Waiting out the time a little longer beyond 9pm can be rewarding, especially because it’s summertime in Vienna.

I’ve written briefly about the Künstlerhaus and the Musikverein in my overview of “architectural historicism” on Vienna’s Ringstraße (Ring Road).

Musikverein (T. Hansen, 1870): home of the Vienna Philharmonic, and the annual New Year’s Day concert.

Künstlerhaus (A. Weber, 1868): home to the Albertina Modern.
Neue Staatsoper (NEST) im Künstlerhaus / New State Opera in the old Artists’ House).
Also notably marked by a white ‘U’ in a blue cube, this is the “Künstlerhaus, Musikverein” entry/exit from Karlsplatz U-Bahn junction station for lines U1, U2, and U4.

I made all images above with an iPhone15 on 10 July 2025. This post composed within Jetpack for iOS appears on Fotoeins Fotografie at fotoeins DOT com.
