Nothing weird about them, they're common all over the world. In America they call them 'hammer dulcimers.' I wish people would do a minimum amount of research on things before they start showing how ignorant they are. It is really so simple, and we have the internet. Or you could try asking the person playing it. It is a beauty, this one! they also play versions of it in China, Iran, and Mongolia too. Nice video.

Norway or China. Too primitive to be from Europe!

@nicolaevermont ok if you find the therm "weird" rather offensive, you got to admit this is at least a bit "uncommon" to be found in a street.

Looks like a Cembalum to me.. There are several in Vienna.

search "Roby Lakatos Galaspektakel Gypsy Csardas" for an insane performance on this instrument

In Romania it is called tambal (tzambal) and it is not Czech/Hungarian traditional instrument,it is used everywhere in the balcans,like
former Iugoslavia,Slovacia,Bulgaria,Moldova eaven in Macedonia,Grece and Turkey.
The person that play`s is a gipsy (or rroma,they are the ones that usualy play this instrument in Romania) and please stop calling objects that needed hundreds of years to evolve weird,just because you have never meet one.
Look at the structure and ornaments,how old..just look...
