6. Sigmund Freud Park

Originally called the Votivpark and laid out in the 1870s as part of the building project of the Votivkirche, this park was renamed Sigmund Freud Park in 1961. It features a ring of trees planted in March 1997 by the European Union to celebrate its 40th anniversary. Each tree is a different genus and represents a member country. In May 2004 a granite table surrounded by 10 seats was erected in the middle of the ring to represent the EU's 10 new member states. The park also features a sculpture composed of 3 types of marble by the secession sculptor Rudolf Moratti.   (© 10Best)
