Hotel Meissl & Schadn is a famous hotel that overlooks the Kärntner Straße Neuer-Markt square, the main facade. The beautiful painted facade in front of us is, in fact, “the back of the hotel. According to one of his contemporaries, the dawn era of bourgeois Vienna, this hotel was the place of "a noble bourgeoisie that no one sees and does not want to see." And the history of the place dates back to the middle of the XVII century, when there was the first hotel, called "At the Blue Deer". In 1852, it was acquired by a Viennese restaurant cooperative, which sold the building several decades later, and the Meissl & Schadn was built in 1894-96. Karl Hofmeyer. The facade, facing Kerntner Strasse, was decorated with a mosaic of Edward Veit, representing the five ends of the world. The famous guest at the hotel was the composer Edward Grieg, who stayed here in 1865, 1869 and 1896. In general, the Scandinavians frequented Vienna in the 19th century after the notes of Andersen, who spent a long time in this city. On the ground floor of the hotel’s Great Dining Hall, which opens onto Kärntner Strasse, on October 21, 1916, the socialist Friedrich Adler shot and killed Prime Minister Karl Graf Sturgh. The historic building burned down in 1945 during World War II. The side facing Kärntner Straße with the mosaic still existing has been preserved and was built into the wall of the new Hotel Europa, built, like the previous one, with the main facade facing the new market square.

From Stephansplatz through the ancient Karststrasse to the Albertina Gallery. In Albertine, there was a Monet exhibition, when the works of this artist were brought from different museums of the world and exhibited together, presenting the same places at different times of the year or at different times of the day. And the walk ended on the square of the old market, the funny story of Mark Twain. Translated with Google Translate
