Vienna

All major discoveries by Sigmund Freud were made in Vienna. Therefore one cannot but consider the cultural and social impact of the city on Dr Sigmund Freud and the whole psychoanalytic movement

Vienna is also the city where the Viennese Psychoanalytic Society (Otto Rank, Herman Nunberg, Paul Federn, Otto Fenichel, Helene Deutsch...) was active and where the Viennese Psychoanalytic polyclinic operated (i.a. Dr Wilhelm Reich).

The SFTV will let you revive the places where psychoanalysis started

Vienna is currently also the most liveable city in the world. Until 2019 Vienna ranked number one as the city with the highest quality of living in the world, according to actuary & consulting firm Mercer Intl. and "The Economist Intelligence Unit" . Only during the corona period Vienna was surpassed by Melbourne. In 2023 Vienna is again the city with the highest quality of living in the world (www.mercer.com).

It is undoubtedly a modern, young and vibrant city but als a place where the most beautiful buildings from the Imperial Habsburg period still exist.

Even so all buildings and places where Sigmund Freud studied,worked and lived, still do exist and allow us to get a better grip at understanding his working and spiritual environment at the turn of the century.

Vienna is the place where you will feel the pulse of a modern West European capital city but it is also a city where you can experience the seemingly timeless stability of the belle epoque and barock periods
