Austria National Day 2017

Since 1965, October 26th has been celebrated as Austrian National day, when Austrians across the globe celebrate the end of the country’s post-WWII occupation and the Declaration of Neutrality, a constitutional law on permanent neutrality.

The capital city of Vienna hosts many of the national day celebrations in Heldenplatz, also known as “Heroes Square.” To encourage interest and a better understanding of the history of Austria, federal museums offer free or reduced-fare admissions on national day. For Austrian citizens living abroad, Austrian embassies around the world host receptions showcasing Austrian music and cuisine.
