Morning
Start your day at Vienna University (see p97), exploring the marble entrance hall and the courtyard. Then head towards the Votivkirche (see p97), passing through Sigmund Freud Park (see p53).
Walk up Alser Strasse until you reach the former General Hospital. For a break choose one of the many pubs in the large first courtyard, amid crowds of students.
Head to courtyard 13 where the PathologischAnatomisches Museum (see p47) is situated. Cut your way to Strudlhofgasse and stride down Strudlhofstiege where you can already spot Palais Liechtenstein. In Porzellangasse you will find several places for a hearty lunch.
Afternoon
On your way to the Sigmund Freud Museum (see p97) pass by Servitenkirche and get a glimpse of the Baroque interior. Give yourself enough time to have a look around Dr Freud’s apartment and consulting rooms. For a little break and a cup of coffee, Café Berg (see p100) just across the road is a great place to rest your feet. Then visit the collection of 18th-century anatomical wax models in the Josephinum.
You can round the day off with an evening of classical music in the Palais Liechtenstein, but book tickets in advance (01 817 2178).
