„Am Roan" is easy to reach from other Vienna districts by public transport, as well as by taxi (about €25–35 from the city center) or by car — details on public transport connections from each district below.
Getting there by public transport
We actually ran the numbers: travel time by public transport from the geographic midpoint of each of Vienna's 23 districts to „Am Roan", based on real Wiener Linien timetables, for a Tuesday afternoon with arrival between 3 and 5 pm.
The main thing upfront: there are only two sensible ways in. Bus 35A to Salmannsdorf runs every 7–8 minutes from Spittelau or Nußdorfer Straße (U4/U6), followed by about a 20-minute uphill walk (roughly 1.2 km, 100 m of elevation) — the standard route for pretty much all of Vienna. Bus 43A takes you straight to Dreimarkstein, just a 3-minute walk from the venue, but it only runs hourly and only on the summer timetable — for a date outside that season, check it in advance.
| District | from midpoint | Transfers | from center | typical connection |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 17 · Hernals | 19 min | 0 | 45 min | 43A direct to Dreimarkstein |
| 14 · Penzing | 34 min | 2 | 55 min | 52A → 43B → 43A |
| 18 · Währing | 46 min | 0 | 42 min | 35A to Salmannsdorf + walk |
| 9 · Alsergrund | 50 min | 1 | 50 min | 38 → 35A |
| 16 · Ottakring | 52 min | 2 | 52 min | 9 → 43 → 43A |
| 20 · Brigittenau | 53 min | 2 | 51 min | U6 → 35A |
| 15 · Rudolfsheim-Fünfhaus | 54 min | 2 | 56 min | U3 → S45 → 35A |
| 8 · Josefstadt | 55 min | 2 | 55 min | 13A → 43 → 43A |
| 19 · Döbling | 57 min | 2 | 41 min | S45 → 35A |
| 1 · Innere Stadt | 59 min | 3 | 54 min | U1 → U4 → 38 → 35A |
| 6 · Mariahilf | 59 min | 3 | 56 min | U6 → 35A (1 transfer, 64 min) |
| 7 · Neubau | 61 min | 2 | 59 min | 49 → U6 → 35A |
| 4 · Wieden | 62 min | 3 | 61 min | U4 → 35A (1 transfer, 70 min) |
| 21 · Floridsdorf | 64 min | 3 | 53 min | S2 → S45 → 35A |
| 3 · Landstraße | 68 min | 3 | 64 min | U4 → 38 → 35A |
| 10 · Favoriten | 72 min | 3 | 64 min | U1 → U4 → 38 → 35A |
| 2 · Leopoldstadt | 73 min | 3 | 55 min | S1/U2 → U6 → 35A |
| 5 · Margareten | 73 min | 3 | 69 min | U4 → 38 → 35A |
| 12 · Meidling | 73 min | 3 | 60 min | U6 → 43 → 43A |
| 13 · Hietzing | 73 min | 3 | 52 min | U4 → 43B |
| 11 · Simmering | 79 min | 4 | 70 min | U3 → U4 → 38 → 35A |
| 23 · Liesing | 79 min | 2 | 80 min | U6 → 35A |
| 22 · Donaustadt | 81 min | 3 | 75 min | U2 → U4 → 35A |
Bottom line: „Am Roan" is best reached from districts 19, 18, 17, 9 and 20 (roughly 40–52 minutes, 1–2 transfers). Anything along the U4 and U6 works well, since the 35A connects from both. The furthest out are districts 22, 23, 11 and 10 (70–80 minutes, 3 transfers) — with just one transfer (U4 or U6 → 35A) you can get here from almost anywhere in Vienna, just 10–20 minutes slower.
For the way home in the evening: the 35A runs until about 10:45 pm from Salmannsdorf, after which the night bus N35 takes over every 30 minutes to Nußdorfer Straße (U6). The 43A stops running around 7 pm already.
To check it yourself, use AnachB.at or the Wiener Linien app — enter „Dreimarkstein" (platform 43A) or „Salmannsdorf" as the destination, since the house address itself isn't always recognized cleanly, as the house sits right on the border between districts 17 and 19 on the Höhenstraße.

Parking
Parking is free. But please don't park in the middle of the lot — cars there get towed because Wiener Linien buses need to get through!
What should we wear?
Festive, but ready to party — there will be dancing, after all! Feel free to bring comfortable shoes to change into.
What can we give as a gift?
Most of all, we look forward to celebrating this occasion together with you. If you'd like to give us something on top of that, we'd be thankful for a financial contribution towards our wedding celebration or our honeymoon. Other than that, we really do have everything we need!
Should we bring our kids?
Your children are very welcome! We can't offer childcare, but the venue sits in a fully fenced-in area. The sheep are almost as popular as the playground with every age group. There's also a kids' corner and an outdoor bowling alley for young and old alike. In the afternoon, the kids are welcome to take over the disco and turn it into a kids' disco.
What are you up to over the weekend?
Our wedding takes place on a Friday, and we'll stay in Vienna for the whole weekend (Saturday and Sunday) before heading off somewhere to relax for a few days. Especially with those of you traveling specially for us and staying in Vienna for a few more days after the wedding, we'd love to spend some more time together — for example over a glass of wine at a Heuriger or a boat tour on the Danube. We'll send updates about that via our newsletter.
Please don't
The venue kindly asks that you only smoke outdoors, and that you skip confetti, flower petals, rice, sparkler fountains, sparklers and bubbles — thank you!
Anyone who just can't resist climbing into the sheep pen will unfortunately have to pay a fine of several hundred euros. No joke.
Who are our best man and maid of honor?
For any questions about the celebration, feel free to reach out to Karen & Robert anytime.
