    Getting There

    Public Transport

    From Eisenstadt's main train station (Eisenstadt Bahnhof), take the regional train (S-Bahn) to Wien Hauptbahnhof (Vienna Central Station). The journey takes about 35 minutes. Once you arrive at Wien Hauptbahnhof, follow the signs to the U-Bahn (subway) station within the train station. Take the U1 line (red line) towards 'Stephansplatz'. Get off at 'Karlsplatz' station after 4 stops. At Karlsplatz, transfer to the U2 line (purple line) towards 'Karlsplatz'. Get off at 'Karlsplatz' and follow the signs to exit the station. Once you exit, walk towards the intersection of Seilerstätte and Kärntnertor Theater. The House of Music is located at Seilerstätte 30, just a short walk from the intersection.
