Vienna is the capital city of Austria. Since 1920, it has also been an Austrian state, with its mayor doubling as the Landeshauptmann (governor or minister-president) of the State of Vienna.
Since 24 May 2018, Michael Ludwig has served as Mayor of Vienna.[1]
In 1922, the city of Vienna was constituted as a separate state of Austria. It had previously been the capital of Lower Austria. Thus Vienna's mayor also has the rank of a state governor.
