"Crown" unveiled

This is how much the Krügerl costs this year in the Schweizerhaus

It's one of the city's best-kept secrets: before the opening of the world-famous beer garden in Vienna's Prater, the "Krone" reveals this year's beer price. Small spoiler: It's below an important magic threshold.

The Kolarik restaurant family is already entering its 104th season with its traditional establishment. The Schweizerhaus is now known far beyond the borders of Vienna and is listed in every tourist guide as a tourist destination in the Prater. After the winter break, the beer will be flowing from the taps again in just under a week, on March 15, accompanied by the equally famous crispy stilton and pancakes.
