Design
Stone artefacts from the Roman Vindobona have been decoratively attached along the platforms . There are three architraves , a stone pine cone and two capitals that were excavated during the construction of the underground near Kärntner Strasse ; the pine cone had already been found in 1896. The parts belonged together and formed a tomb or a small temple shrine.
