Floating School

The two firmly anchored and interconnected ships in the foreground are home to Vienna's Bertha-von-Suttner-Gymnasium, a grammar school founded in 1994. It is located on the Danube Island between the bridges Floridsdorfer Brücke (from where the photo was taken) and Nordbahnbrücke. de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bertha-von-Suttner-Gymnasium_(Wien)

In the background you can see Donau City, a new neighbourhood built since 1996 in Vienna's 22nd district, Donaustadt. It is characterised by numerous high-rise buildings, some of which are among the tallest in Austria. The buildings are mainly used for offices and flats. de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Donau_City
