About event
For centuries queer people had to hide. The 7th district preserves their traces - and on this Vienna Pride Walk we make them visible and tangible. Because the absence of queer history is not a coincidence, but the result of systematic erasure. We counter this forgetting with memory and appropriation.
Neubau is a place full of queer history - from persecution and resistance to culture, community and joy of life. Stories that remained invisible for far too long and should never have disappeared from memory. This Vienna Pride Walk brings them back.
What awaits you?
Law & Resistance At the Ministry of Justice, we learn how criminal law shaped the lives of generations of queer people - and how they still went their own way.
Stage & Culture The Volkstheater was the scene of important queer theater events. We tell you what made queer history behind the scenes and on stage.
Scene & Community Fetish fashion, trendy bars on Spittelberg and events like EuroPride - Neubau was and is a lively place for queer life. We discover this history together.
For whom? Anyone who wants to discover queer history, city history and Vienna off the beaten path - whether alone, with friends or as a group.
About Qwien Qwien - Center for Queer History Vienna - sees mediation as a central task: history should not only be preserved, but also made accessible and tangible. Our Vienna Pride Walks and city walks are aimed at everyone who wants to rediscover Vienna.
This Vienna Pride Walk is more than just a walk - it is a tribute to courage, love, resistance and joy of life. Get your ticket now and be there!
