Vienna , Austria

A lovely card from Austria as a result of another arranged swap. You are seeing Vienna of course and one of its most famous landmarks Stephansdom. A short intro from Wikipedia for it :

St. Stephen's Cathedral (GermanStephansdom) is the mother church of the Archdiocese of Vienna and the seat of the Archbishop of ViennaChristoph Cardinal SchönbornOP. Its current Romanesque and Gothic form seen today, situated at the heart of Vienna, Austria in the Stephansplatz, was largely initiated by Rudolf IV and stands on the ruins of two earlier churches, the first being a parish church consecrated in 1147. As the most important religious building in Austria's capital, the cathedral has borne witness to many important events in that nation's history and has, with its multi-colored tile roof, become one of the city's most recognizable symbols.

Vielen Dank an Anna :)

Austrian National Team ? ( maybe )

This card came as an official one from the Netherlands ! It is an ad card which I don't mind since it is related to football :)  It seems to me (since there is no info on the card) that it must be about their national team of football (soccer)! The colours match , the symbol too ... How do you do ? Es geht mir sehr gut , DANKE :))

Dank je wel Miranda
