Concerts at the Palais Daun-Kinsky
Vienna Residence Orchestra

The Palais Daun-Kinsky is a Baroque palace in Vienna's historic first district, near the Hofburg. Built between 1713 and 1719, it was commissioned by Count Wirich Philipp von Daun, a prominent Austrian field marshal. The palace was designed by Johann Lucas von Hildebrandt, a leading Baroque architect, and features ornate stucco work by Alberto Camesina and frescoes by Carlo Carlone.

After the Daun family, the palace was later owned by the Kinsky family, giving it its current name. Over the centuries, it has served various purposes, from a noble residence to a venue for business and events. Today, it is admired for its richly decorated facade, grand staircase, and stunning interiors, making it a prime example of Vienna's Baroque elegance.

How to get to the Palais Daun-Kinsky

By public transportation

The Palais Kinsky is situated at the address Freyung No. 4 in the first district of Vienna. It is only a short walk from the subway station Schottentor of the subway line U2 and the station Herrengasse of the subway line U3.

By car

As is the case with all concerts that take place in the first district (Innere Stadt), we recommend to not go there by car. Vienna's first district is a labyrinth of narrow one-way streets and blind ends and parking is at best difficult, more often impossible.
Please note that all of Vienna is a short-term parking zone (Kurzparkzone) from Monday to Friday from 9:00 to 22:00 with a maximum parking time of two hours. Prepaid parking vouchers may be purchased at tobacconists, all points of advance sale and ticket machines at all Vienna public transport underground stations, automobile clubs ARBÖ and ÖAMTC and some petrol/gas stations or online with your mobile phone at www.handyparken.at (registration required).

By taxi

Taxis are a reliable and common means to get to your concert. Taxis are usually found at train stations and at taxi stands all over the city. Or you can order a taxi by calling:  31 300,  60 160,  40 100 oder  81 400.
