Our guide, Inga, was excellent! Very knowledgeable. Especially loved the "back stable" tour (where photos were not allowed). Only wish I had done the tour BEFORE seeing the official show, but as the performance only happens at limited times, it was not possible. Wanted to book more experiences, but ran out of time!

Die Führung war in deutscher Sprache und von einem jungen Mann mit Charme und Wortwitz. Es war ein Erlebnis und ich kann es nur jedem (auch Einheimischen) ans Herz legen. Es war wirklich informativ und zugleich sehr unterhaltsam!!!

Sehr gut durchdacht und organisiert , man sieht die Tradition, Luxusleben der Pferde , medizinisch besser Versorgung als für Normalbürger , werde noch einmal mit meiner Freunden kommen um die Pferde in Aktion zu sehen, wäre nicht möglich wie bei Fußball eine kurze Trinkpause für die Zuschauer zu gewähren .

Join a 55–60 minute guided tour of the Spanish Riding School, led by experts who unpack its history, architecture, and equestrian traditions.

Step inside the Winter Riding School, a Baroque riding hall built to exact proportions for classical dressage.

Visit the Summer Riding School, home to one of the world’s largest oval horse walkers, offering a rare look at modern training within a historic setting.

Explore the Stallburg, Vienna’s most significant Renaissance building, where Lipizzaner stallions have been stabled for centuries.

Fun fact: Founded in 1565, the Spanish Riding School is the only institution in the world where Renaissance-era classical horsemanship is still practiced exactly as it was over 460 years ago.

Step inside a 460-year-old institution on a 55–60 minute guided tour of the Spanish Riding School, exploring its riding halls, stables, and living equestrian traditions.

Getting started

Arrive at the Visitor Centre at least 5 minutes before your tour begins. Exchange your mobile voucher for a physical ticket at the cashier’s desk (available up to 1 hour before start time), then meet your guide for a short introduction.

What to expect

Spanish Riding School

This guided tour takes you behind the scenes of one of Vienna’s most enduring cultural institutions, where classical equitation has been practiced since the 16th century. You’ll explore the architectural spaces that support both daily training and ceremonial performances.

Inside the school

Winter Riding School: Enter the Baroque riding hall and learn how its proportions, symmetry, and light were designed specifically for classical dressage.

Summer Riding School: Visit the training area that houses one of the world’s largest oval horse walkers, offering insight into modern conditioning methods.

Stallburg Imperial Stables: Explore Vienna’s most significant Renaissance building, home to the Lipizzaner stallions for over 460 years.

Equestrian Tradition: Hear how Renaissance-era methods of the Haute École are still followed today, passed down through generations of riders.

What to bring

Mobile voucher to exchange for a physical ticket at the cashier’s desk before the tour.

Comfortable clothing suitable for standing and walking indoors for about an hour.

Light essentials only because you’ll need to carry everything with you, as no storage is available.

What’s not allowed

Cameras, phones for photography, and video recording equipment are strictly prohibited during the tour.

Pets, including dogs, are not permitted inside the Spanish Riding School.

Children under 3 years are not allowed to join guided tours.

Large bags, coats, or luggage cannot be stored on-site.

Accessibility

Due to limited wheelchair availability, visitors must email a request in advance to the Spanish Riding School.

Access is only confirmed once written approval is received and must be shown when collecting tickets.

Additional information

Tickets can be collected up to 1 hour before the scheduled start time.

Children aged 3–6 enter free; ages 6–18 receive a reduced rate.

The tour takes place inside a working historic institution, so rules around movement and photography are strictly enforced.

Please check your final voucher for the starting point details & specific instructions.
