Campaign to Save Vienna's Coffee Houses

Traditional Viennese coffee houses are listed by UNESCO as 'Intangible Cultural Heritage'. Rather wonderfully, they are succinctly described as follows, "Where time and space are consumed, but only the coffee is found on the bill." The Viennese have enjoyed coffee & cake, newspapers & philosophy in their city since the late 1600s. They are an institution, each one effectively a democratic club which requires no membership; they are open to all for the price of a coffee.
