The Kahlenberg lies in the Vienna Woods and is one of the most popular destinations for day-trips from Vienna, offering a view over the entire city. Parts of Lower Austria can also be seen from Stefaniewarte at the peak. Next to Stefaniewarte is a 165-meter high steel tower that serves as the transmitter for the ORF, the Austrian Broadcast Corporation. Two terraces are located on the mountain: one at a small church called St. Josef and one at a restaurant built in the 1930s by architect Erich Boltenstern. Parts of the restaurant and a nearby abandoned hotel have been torn down and replaced by a modern restaurant and MODUL University Vienna, a private university established in 2007, focusing on Social and Economic Development, in particular in the areas of tourism, information technology and public governance. The demolition was opposed by the local historical society and by some architects who believed the building was worth protecting. There is also a spiritual recovery center and a center for a Catholic reform movement, the Schönstattbewegung Österreich.


Kahlenberg leži na granici Beča i Klosterneuburga.

Od 1874. do 1920. do vrha Kahlenberga vozio je kabelski tramvaj, a brdska cesta - Hohenstrasse sagrađena je 1935. Danas se na samom vrhu nalazi restoran Stephaniewarte, i radijsko-televizijski odašiljač podignut 1974. sa tornjem visokim 165 metara.[1] Nešto niže u nekadašnjem selu Josefsdorf nalazi se crkva podignuta između 1629. - 1639., oštećena 1683., a nakon tog obnovljena do 1734. Ona je na početku pripadala kamaldolijancima, redu koji je car Joseph II ukinuo - 1783. Tako je od 1906. pripala kongregaciji poljskih rezurekcionista.

Oni su 1930. u sakristiji podigli kapelu Sobieski, u spomen na kralja Jana III. Sobjeskog, koji je poveo rezervne snage i spasio Beč - 1683. od Osmanlija za Druge opsade Beča.

Kuriozam je da se Kahlenberg orginalno zvao Sauberg ili Schweinsberg (Svinjsko brdo), a ime Kahlenberg ili Kalenberg se koristilo za brdo koje se danas zove Leopoldsberg.
