Madame Tussauds for Vienna

Just some weeks after the announcement of the opening of a Madame Tussauds attraction in Bangkok, Thailand for 2010, there is news from Europe: In early 2011, another wax figure attraction will open in Prater Park, Vienna. The figures of Merlin’s ten million British Pound (11.3 million Euros) attraction will reflect the rich culture of the city of Vienna. Among around 70 wax figures, visitors will encounter personalities like Freud, Einstein, Mozart as well as Arnold Schwarzenegger, Niki Lauda and Obama, for example. (eap)
