THE PLACE & THE MUSIC

A place to pause.

The court chapel lies within the Hofburg’s medieval Schweizerhof, reached through the old palace courtyards close to the Michaelerplatz entrance. Its Gothic fabric preserves one of the most intimate historic interiors in the imperial complex.

The Wiener Hofmusikkapelle maintains a musical tradition associated with the Habsburg court and generations of court musicians. The public programme includes both liturgical services and separately announced concerts; Hour Classics lists only the latter when free admission is explicitly confirmed.

Free concerts at different times of day; see each individually checked listing.
