The culture of the humble ‘Würstelstand’ is one of the latest additions to the national list of intangible cultural heritage, overseen by the Austrian UNESCO Commission
Customers line up at a traditional sausage stand, which have been named as an intangible cultural heritage by the Austrian UNESCO Commission, in Vienna, Austria, on Nov. 28.The Vienna sausage stand is a place where the street sweeper, the manager, the tourist and the celebrity converge for the same tasty snack. Now it also has the official stamp of approval as part of Austria’s heritage.
The street stand is known for bringing people of many classes and backgrounds together and has its own distinctive vocabulary. “Originally it was just a bucket with hot water in which the sausages used to swim,” he said. They were sold from “small carriages drawn by dogs and bigger ones drawn by horses, later by a VW bus or a tractor to their spot.”
