If I am not mistaken, this is the Vienna City Hall. The Austrian Parliament is in the Palais Epstein. This city hall is good example of the gothic revival architecture with its rather medival looks.

The Austrian Parliament Building,( VIENNA`S PARLIAMENT HOUSE )

The main construction lasted from 1874 to 1883. The architect responsible for the building was Baron Theophil von Hansen, the building is an example of Greek revival.
One of the building`s most famous features is the statue of Athena and the fountain, a notable Viennese tourist attraction. Despite heavy damages and destruction during World War II, most of the interior has been restored to its original appearance.
The parliament building covers over 13,500 square meters, making it one of the largest structures on the Ringstra
