The carbon market is a shopping street in the first district of Vienna Inner City . It extends from the Michaelerplatz to ditch and is due to a high concentration of jewelers and branches of international luxury fashion labels as a street in Vienna. The history of the coal market extends to the time of the Roman legion camp Vindobona back, whose southwestern gate, later Peilertor could be achieved via the carbon market. 1255 and 1304 he was mentioned as Witmarkt, 1314 and 1352 as the first carbon market. The name is on the original use as a selling space of charcoal traders attributed. After the establishment of the Hofburg , the proximity of the carbon market to the imperial residence location of the producers of high quality and luxury goods has fostered.
