Vienna (German: Wien; Latin: Vindobona) is a city in northeastern Austria, the capital and largest city of the country, coextensive with Vienna (Wien) Province.
Vienna was for many centuries the political and economic center of the Austrian Empire under the Habsburg family, and between 1867 and 1918 the capital of the Austro-Hungarian monarchy.
Today, the city dominates the economic and cultural life of Austria and contains about one-fifth of the country’s population. Rich in tradition, Austria’s former royal seat and capital city unites glorious memories of the past with modern-day liveliness.
