In January 2024, I did a whistlestop five-day book research trip to Vienna, Austria, and then Nuremberg and Cologne in Germany. My goal was to research locations for my next action-adventure thriller, Spear of Destiny, and also to visit two spectacular Gothic cathedrals.
In this article, I’ll share the highlights and also some practical tips. It includes:
- St Stephen’s Cathedral (Stephansdom), Vienna
- The Holy Lance / Spear of Destiny in the Hofburg Treasury, Vienna
- Tombs of the Habsburgs, Capuchin Crypt, Vienna
- Globe Museum and State Hall library, Vienna
- Practicalities of Vienna, and trains to Germany
- Nazi Art Bunker, Nuremberg, Nurnberg
- Cologne Cathedral, Koln
