The Building and Guided Tours
Parliament is not only the very heart of political activity. The historic Parliament Building breathes history and stories, art and noble architecture. Visitors can get a lively impression of how and where politicians are at work – as guests watching the debates in the National and Federal Councils and in some committees, or through guided tours catering for diverse interests that give you insights into the special features of the Parliament Building and Palais Epstein.
