Welcome in Vienna ({{langx|de|Wohin und zurück - Teil 3: Welcome in Vienna}}) is a 1986 Austrian drama film directed by Axel Corti.{{cite web |url=http://www.jewishfilm.org/Catalogue/films/welcomeinvienna.htm |title=Welcome in Vienna |accessdate=17 August 2015 |work=Jewish Film}} The film was selected as the Austrian entry for the Best Foreign Language Film at the 60th Academy Awards, but was not accepted as a nominee.Margaret Herrick Library, Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences
It is the third film in the director's six-hour, "Where To and Back" (Wohin und zurück) trilogy. It follows on from the first film, 1982's Wohin und zurück - God Does Not Believe In Us Anymore ({{langx|de|Wohin und zurück - Teil 1: An uns glaubt Gott nicht mehr - Ferry oder Wie es war}}), and the second film, 1986's Wohin und zurück - Santa Fe ({{langx|de|Wohin und zurück - Teil 2: Santa Fé}}).
"...The trilogy is loosely based on [writer] Troller’s life as a Viennese Jew who fled Europe as a teenager, emigrated to the United States, and returned to Europe during World War II as an American soldier. Each of these full length feature films – which are connected to each other by an advancing chronology and a series of overlapping characters – are meant to be viewed together...".{{cite web |url=http://www.jewishfilm.org/Catalogue/films/wheretoandback.htm |title=Where to and Back |accessdate=31 May 2016 |work=Jewish Film}}
