Viennese student fights with city for allotment garden

A student (29) has been trying for three years to buy her grandmother's patch of green. The city of Vienna is now going all the way to the Supreme Court to prevent this.

The dream of having her own patch of green in the big city - a Viennese student wants to fulfill it. But the City of Vienna has been standing in her way for almost three years now. In 2020, she took over the leasehold of an allotment garden in the 22nd district from her grandmother, which she wanted to buy the following year.
