Dialog im Dunkeln in Vienna lets you navigate familiar situations without sight, guided through complete darkness by blind and partially sighted guides. You cross a street, shop in a store, or visit a bar using touch, hearing, and smell.

Different floor textures, wind sounds, and moving air make each setting feel tangible. The Austrian concept began with temporary exhibitions in 1993 and became permanent in 2009. A separate installation explores the lives of blind people in Africa, created with Light for the World. Guides share personal experiences while helping visitors consider communication, empathy, diversity, and accessibility.

Special formats include Dinner in the Dark, with a four-course meal served in darkness, and a breakfast tour. School programmes connect the experience with inclusion, while companies can arrange team-building and diversity workshops. The exhibition occupies about 1,000 square metres, where everyday life becomes something you hear, touch, and smell rather than see.

Spots like this one are the stops myTuur strings into tours through Vienna. In the app, each story begins where you stand: walk up to a spot and it starts, read it on screen or listen as you go, then follow the route to the next one.
