01 BREAD: Stephansplatz (Taste of Vienna Tour)
This tour begins on Stephansplatz—St. Stephen’s Square—at the center of Vienna’s first district and reachable by the U1 and U3 metro lines.
After a few tips on navigating Vienna, this episode explores the importance of bread in the medieval diet (and the fate of dishonest bakers), divulges some secrets hidden beneath the square, and relates the legend of the “Stock-in-Irons.”
