The Vienna Philharmonic Orchestra is a cultural treasure to the people of Austria. One of the most respected and highly regarded orchestras in the world, the Vienna Philharmonic has performed in the nation’s capital city of Vienna since 1842 when it was formed. Regularly orchestral performances in the city date back even further to the early 1830s, though the orchestra was formally established at that point.

Founded in 1194 by Duke Leopold V, the Austrian Mint is one of Europe’s oldest operating mint facilities. The initial funding to launch the mint was a result of a 15 ton silver payment made to Leopold V by England’s King Richard I, better known as Richard the Lionheart, as a ransom for his troops.
