The honorary citizenship is the highest honor the city of Vienna .

Since 1839, at the instigation of the then mayor Ignaz Czapka , honorary citizenships have been recorded in the honorary citizenship book. Honors from the previous period have been added, but some of the award winners have been forgotten. With the award of honorary citizenship, the awardees also receive an honorary citizenship diploma . Honorary citizenships can also be revoked.

Today the Vienna City Constitution (WStV), LGBl. No. 28/1968 of October 15, 1968, as amended, is the legal basis for the award.

No awards were made between 1930 and 1946.
