Youth ticket ages 6–14 850 Ft; ages 0–5 free

Notes Cards only, no cash; the half-price student ticket is sold only at the window on site. The official page does not say whether ISIC is accepted, only "valid student photo ID". In October the paid hours are 9:00–19:00; after 19:00 and before 9:00 the upper level is also free (the rule for 10-01 to 05-31). 10-23 is free all day, not in the itinerary.

Youth ticket Under 6 free; family tickets have their own prices (non-EEA family ticket, child 5,600 Ft)

Notes The prices come from the price list valid from 2026-01-01, but they were only read on third-party sites (ticketlens.com and budabestlife.com, which agree); the price page on the official site has a CAPTCHA and was not read. For ID it only says "proof of discount eligibility" and does not say whether ISIC is accepted; the old database says "student card + passport". If any Companion is 25 or 26, count them at the adult price of 14,000 Ft. If you buy an EEA ticket for a non-EEA person, you have to pay the difference at the entrance. Old database 7,000 Ft: unchanged. Official ticketing is Jegymester: the time slots the official page listed for 10-25 were all sold out when viewed on 10-22; 10-26 was not seen in the list, so choose the date at jegymester.hu/parlament to check.

There are Chinese audio guides; D-07 records "not visiting Parliament" (it is not clear whether the original statement covers only 10-25 or the whole trip), and the recommendation is to see only the outside. Xiaohongshu says about 8000 HUF, which does not match the table (student 7,000, non-EEA adult 14,000)

On 10-25 Sun the hall opens only in the afternoon (Mass in the morning); on 10-26 Mon you can enter all day. No closures noted

Youth ticket Under 18 pay the student price; free under 6

Combo ticket "All-in-one" = hall + terrace + treasury: adult 6,800 Ft, student 5,500 Ft (cheaper than buying hall + terrace separately: adults save 800 Ft, students save 500 Ft. Budapest Card holders get 20% off: all-in-one 5,400 Ft

Note The price list says the student price needs a "valid International or Hungarian Student Card", so ISIC is accepted. The price list is an image on the official site (valid from 2025-12-01); the old database did not record student prices, so this is new: with ISIC, 4 people buying the all-in-one ticket save 1,300 Ft each. On weekends the hall visit may be restricted because of weddings.

Combo ticket 7 Museums Pass U25 €30 (annual pass, the website says under 25; not worth it for a single visit unless you enter two or more participating museums in the same week); Vienna City Card holders get the €23 reduced rate

Combo ticket No combo ticket. Admission includes the church model, the panoramic platform (Altane), the treasury, the organ and an audio guide

Notes The website does not give a student age limit or say whether ID is needed. It lists no separate price for the dome lift: the platform is reached through the organ gallery, and a third party says it is included in admission. The website does not say "free during the Mass after 18:00": it only gives Mass Mon–Sat at 18:00 and ticketed visiting hours 09:00–18:00, and says nothing about free entry during Mass; attending Mass does not mean you can sightsee.

About 11′ walk from Naschmarkt; Xiaohongshu says entry is free during the Mass after 18:00, but the official site does not say this and only gives ticketed visiting hours 09:00–18:00, so go inside before 18:00 (student €6); after 18:00 look at the exterior and the pool at night. In the pool in front is Henry Moore's Hill Arches (a bronze arch sculpture installed in 1978). The "church with the Möbius strip" the user mentioned is not this one, it is the Votivkirche (Q-09 closed, D-70). I came on 10-27 (the user said so on 10-30 at 19:12)

The '∞' light sculpture between the two towers is about 28 × 6 m. It was lit on 2025-12-16 and was due to come down in 2026-08, but the Archdiocese of Vienna announced an extension to the end of 2027-05 (reported by vol.at and news.at, searched in the main session on 10-30 19:4x); what time it is switched off each night was not found. Seeing it from outside the church is enough, no need to go in, no ticket. The user went to see it around 20:05 on the night of 10-30. The user said they would skip the light show inside the church: the Light of Creation show does not run every day (only on selected dates at 18:30, 20:00 and 21:30, about 30 minutes each), and whether there are shows on 10-30 or 10-31 was not found; the twin towers' night lighting can be seen from outside every day.

Xiaohongshu has only a one-line review

Checked: 2026-10-22 materials (location only)

Open Important: the website says "the Sisi Museum area is under renovation and temporarily closed, reopening 11-19 (another place says 11-19 at 11:00)", so we cannot see the Sisi exhibition on 10-27/30/31. The website says every day 10:00–16:30 until 11-18, last entry 16:00; the website does not say whether the Imperial Apartments are open separately. Before buying, check which areas your day ticket currently gets you into.

Youth ticket Ages 6–18: day ticket €9, day ticket + guided tour €22, Sisi Pass €38

Combo ticket Sisi Pass see above; Vienna City Card holders: day ticket €13.50

Notes The website says: show an ISIC; entry in fixed time slots, booking online is recommended. The website says "reduced prices and adjusted opening hours until 11-18", so the current price may be a reduced price for the renovation period and may go up from 11-19; the website does not say whether the current €15 is already the renovation-period price. The website page does not list a separate price for the Silver Collection.

Notes Shoe rental about €4, chalk about €2 (also inferred, unconfirmed); I bring my own climbing shoes and will not rent (old system D-106, D-74). The text of the website's price page has no row/column alignment, so both readings could only be "inferred". Ask at the front desk for the reduced rate and show a student card.

Address Schloßgasse 10-12 (also written Schlossgasse), 1050 Wien; about 5′ walk from U4 Pilgramgasse. The official homepage says "1400m² Grundfläche", which is floor area; the boulderbar Hannovergasse site gives about 1300 m² of climbing area (Kletterfläche), so the two figures are not the same kind of measure; the research sheet gives Hannovergasse a floor area of about 1200 m², and by floor area Blockfabrik (1400 m²) is bigger than it. For the boulderbar at Hbf the research sheet only gives about 1300 m² of wall plus 200 m² outdoors; floor area not found. From Naschmarkt 59A at 13:12 → Margaretenplatz 13:16, then 5′ walk; return 13A at 18:37 Leibenfrostgasse → Hbf 18:44 (Transitous, looked up 10-30 23:34).

Whether the summit restaurant is open at the end of October was not verified; (added) opinions are mixed: a Xiaohongshu blogger "unbeatably beautiful! Pick a sunny day", Jiaozi "top class"; Ximalaya Shan "asked a local, who said the little train is not really worth it"; Xiaohongshu says round trip €40, the official site €61; (10-22) when only one cable car is recommended, this one is not chosen: the price is about double Zwölferhorn, there is no student price, only the fixed A trains are guaranteed to run, and at 1,783 m the summit has a higher risk of snow and fog

There are three different claims about the distance from the valley station to the St. Gilgen bus stop: a Xiaohongshu blogger says "about 5′ on foot", the place database coordinates give 1.25 km in a straight line, Transitous says 32′; check the map when you get there; about 10′ going up (Salzburg Errand Hero); the summit has a viewing platform, a cross (10′ walk), a deer sculpture and a paragliding launch point; Whispered Words: half an hour is enough at the summit, and after coming down St. Gilgen is very quiet with little commercial activity; grass skiing closed on 10-05

Note The conflict in the old database is resolved: the official 4-hour ticket is €31.50 on weekdays/€32.50 on weekends; the Xiaohongshu price of €34 matches the weekday all-day price of €34.00 (or the climbing combo ticket at €34). 10-26 is the Austrian national holiday, so the "holiday" price applies; 10-28 (Wed), 10-29 (Thu) and 10-30 (Fri) are at the weekday price, unless they count as "österr.

Coordinates are the Salzbergbahn valley station; the valley section is 4.5–5.7 km with an ascent of about 430 m; the zigzag path (Serpentinenweg) straight up to the Salzberg from town is closed until spring 2027, so you can only go up from Echerntal; walkable in rain but slippery; (added) popularity counted by myself (0 Xiaohongshu posts). The half-day version walks only the valley section to the Waldbachstrub waterfall and back the same way, 2–2.5 h; the zigzag path is closed until spring 2027, so Salzberg can only be reached from Echerntal; I suggest the valley section only: AllTrails marks the whole loop "glacier potholes–Waldbachstrub–Salzberg" as Hard and [CLOSED] (10.8 km, ascent 749 m), and the zigzag path from town straight up to Salzberg is closed until spring 2027 (hallstatt.net road-closure page, read 10-22); popularity counted by myself (0 Xiaohongshu posts)

Student ticket No student price

Note The official site explains: a Panoramalift goes from the upper cable car station to the Skywalk, and from there it is about a 15 minute walk to the Knappenhaus (start of the salt mine tour). Children under 4 can ride the cable car and go up to the Skywalk. The official site does not say outright that "the Skywalk is free", it only describes the process; whether there is an extra fee cannot be seen from this page, so it is understood as "included in the cable car ticket", marked as my understanding and not as the official wording.
