Viennese Coffeehouses

No sooner does dusk fall

than the city’s cafés come to life

with the tinkling clang of indifference

Gradually the crowd of solitude gathers

around the tables

Since the 17th century, the elegant coffehouses of Vienna have become important cultural landmarks in the city. There are now around 130 coffeehouses in Vienna.
