On the national holiday, around 2,500 visitors accepted Finance Minister Magnus Brunner’s invitation to the Winter Palace. The Ministry of Finance opened the gates to Prinz Eugen’s Winter Palace on Himmelpfortgasse, where guests marveled at the baroque palace and gained an insight into the work of the Ministry of Finance.
Visitors were able to find out more about combating fraud, FinanzOnline and the Austrian customs office. Exactly 100 people took advantage of the opportunity to have their ID Austria set up on site. There was also advice on possible job prospects in financial administration.
The Zollmusik brass quartet provided musical entertainment. During the event, guests were able to meet Finance Minister Magnus Brunner in person.
“It was a great pleasure for me to be able to welcome so many citizens to the beautiful Winter Palace again this year. Since this is probably my last open day as Finance Minister, this occasion was very special for me,” said Finance Minister Magnus Brunner.
