Tulln is the quiet Danube excursion: a small, flat town less than an hour from Vienna on the S40, with the museum of Egon Schiele, who was born here, on the river bank, and an enormous park of show gardens with a walkway among the treetops. Everything is done on foot from the station. Designed for a Sunday from spring to autumn.

## The day, hour by hour

9:00 · S40 to Tulln Stadt. It leaves from Wien Franz-Josefs-Bahnhof, a station not affected by the S-Bahn section closed until October 2027; you reach it on tram D or with the U4 to Friedensbrücke.

9:45 · The Schiele trail. From the station, the waymarked walk along the Wiener Straße and the main square follows the painter's childhood and passes the town tower and the Minoritenkirche.

10:30 · Egon Schiele Museum. Beside the Danube, with work and documents from his whole life and a temporary exhibition every year. It costs €6; if you show your train ticket, €1 less. The virtual reality experience, of about 35 minutes, costs €5 more.

12:15 · The Donaulände. A walk along the bank to the Roman tower and the Nibelungen fountain.

13:00 · Lunch at the Süddeck. Terrace above the Danube and modern Austrian cooking, Thursday to Sunday from 12:00.

15:00 · DIE GARTEN TULLN. Twenty minutes' walk through the floodplain forest. Show gardens, the treetop walkway with its viewpoint and, for children, the adventure playground. If you arrive from 16:00 you pay half.

18:00 · Return. Fifteen minutes on foot to Tulln Stadt and the S40 to Vienna.

## If you go with children or it rains

With children, reverse the afternoon: the gardens first, which is what they like most, and the museum after lunch, with the €12 family ticket. If it rains, extend the museum and the Minoritenkirche and leave the gardens for the last hour, with the afternoon ticket.
