5. öbv Handelsges M.b.h.

"A lovely little bookstore with a wide selection of books. There was a nice older lady working who was able to help us when I asked her for something to write with. She also had the best book recommendation for learning German. Sadly, I could not get it for the cost as I am on a budget, but I do plan on swinging back if I have enough by the end of the month. Ended up just buying some beautful markers and a manga to practice my German reading with."

"This is Vienna's only Jewish bookshop which is also a sweet little café and art galerie and an info point for tourists looking for Jewish Vienna. All that just around the corner from the city's main synagogue and the Simon Wiesenthal Center! The owner is a lovely lady, Dorothee Singer, who seemingly chooses her friendly staff well. The bookshop, the café and the art gallery have a lot to offer and are worth a detour!"
