history
Time Travel was founded on June 1st, 2012 by Paul Rankine.
The Time Travel Vienna concept was developed in close collaboration with the historians Manfried Rauchsteiner and Katrin Unterreiner . For the multimedia shows and technical effects, numerous companies from Europe and the USA were engaged, which have already implemented projects for the Walt Disney Corporation or the Merlin Group . History comes to life at Time Travel Vienna through the interaction of historical content and entertainment technology.
