The Romans settled on Pfarrplatz in Vienna-Heiligenstadt 2,000 years ago. Ludwig van Beethoven later lived here and found inspiration for his compositions. Fascinatingly, the square has remained almost unchanged since that time. This book tells the multifaceted story of the centuries-long history of this magical place, describing in detail the development of the “Mayer” wine tavern and the “Pfarrwirt” restaurant as well as the traditional “Mayer am Pfarrplatz” and “Rotes Haus” wineries – stories that are also part of Vienna’s history.
