UNBELIEVABLY cool museum. why do y'all have ten Rembrandt just sitting there FIRST of all…read more not going to lie to you, special exhibit on coins or whateva was very small. two display cases. but that's chill lowk. Other special exhibit on those landscape painters was awesome, no-brainer to have those works of Vienna in Vienna are you kidding? phenomenal work team. 10/10 on that one, notes and explanations very informative and explanatory (as they should be) main collection - breathtaking ngl. room after room of masterworks (that ive seen before! ) and had no idea that were here. enormous religious works to chiaroscuro tea and dutch floral still lives and Velasquez Hapsburg portraits and actually good interesting vanitas that isn't just pandering wannabe goth slop yes yes yes. fire. there was one painting of a guy made entirely of fish and that really made my day. good job guys. the organization of the main collection was a little bit crazy but it's completely fine, honestly added to the awe of it all kunstkammer or whatever the fuh the royals' own art collection was genuinely amazing if you guys were forced to pick a floor of this place to save from a fire it better be this one. unfortunately on par/better than the painting collection sorry if that's potentially explosive and controversial. architecture fire and tea, decor excellent roman/greek/egyptian I did NOT get to see because of the closing time... my fault I got there at three mb mb mb . . . . . return that stuff to Egypt tho y'all why is a sarcophagus on the Danube anyways 10.5/10 if you miss this you better not ever forgive yourself

Be sure to have lunch at the café--the service was excellent despite how busy it was, and our server was friendly and attentive. The café's beautiful dome was especially captivating and made the dining experience even more memorable.

We purchased skip-the-line tickets via Viator and rented the self-guided audio headsets (I think they were around $5 each, maybe a little more). The collection of art is beautiful, spanning many different periods. Their most famous piece is Klimt's The Kiss. I'll be honest -- I didn't know much about Gustav Klimt before, but after seeing his work, I'm now a big fan. After touring the art museum, stroll through the vast gardens. They are beautiful, both in the front and back.

It's not a huge museum, but the Albertina packs a lot of world-class stuff. If you're into…read moreImpressionist art, you'll find a good amount here. The "Monet to Picasso" exhibit is well-curated and you'll definitely enjoy their collection. The special exhibit they had during my visit was a modern art one, which isn't much my interest but definitely a change from their regular exhibits. Additionally, the museum has staterooms from the old Habsburg days. If you only have time for one small museum in Vienna, this one would be a very good choice.

No single artist embodies the spirit of Vienna more than Gustav Klimt, the late 19th century and…read moreearly 20th century painter and fresco artist who helped found Vienna's Secessionist movement. Klimt's finished frescoes can be seen all over the city... but it is here that you can find the sketches for so many of those frescoes and many of the paintings that have led to his fame. His magical blend of Art Nouveau/Art Deco realism mixed with decorative art, abstraction, and gold leaf, is inspiring. It is well worth a visit.

I found the Technisches Museum Wien to not be very well organized in terms of the visitor…read moreexperience. There were large walls/dividers that made it unnecessarily difficult to get around -- they would block movement between sections, for no apparent purpose, since they weren't leading the visitor to look at exhibits in any particular sequence that made sense. Note that this museum is more of a History of Technology museum than a Technology/Technical museum. Some parts of the museum just feel like an old department store from a few decades ago; it feels like they haven't updated the exhibits on some tech in 30 years. There are some interactive exhibits, although some of them do not appear to work properly. More interactive exhibits would be better. They do have many impressive artifacts on display, including trains, automobiles, & musical instruments. A particular highlight was the train car of Empress Elisabeth. Unless you have a special interest in a particular exhibit, or you are already in the area and have nothing better to do, I would not think it's worth making the trip.

Expansive museum exploring a range of topics including transportation, energy, automation, and…read moremovement. There are enough interactive exhibits to engage kids, but it's not a US-style science center that's entirely for kids; there's much more informational displays that adults can learn a lot from. And unlike some museums in this part of the world that have literal walls of text, the information is presented in just the right depth and spread around artifacts. Who knew I'd be interested in European train coupling or the evolution of domestic cleanliness? Where at all possible, content is local, so the museum has a strong sense of place. For example, there's some depth around how Austria specifically generates & distributes electricity, and the Vienna Airport growth is a case study in transportation challenges. To explore everything in the museum could take 4 hours; 2 hours would be a more manageable visit. As you get further from the center core, some of the less-visited exhibits could be skipped, unless you have a particular interest in for example printing presses.

I did not know he was such a narcissistic twat until he went off to WWI and was humbled and matured by the soldiers he met. He really loved his wife, Edith, though who's to say if he would have stayed faithful if they both lived to old age. I had no idea he died at age 28, and he and his wife died within days of each other, and he died on Halloween 1918. There's a painting by Klimt I wanted to see, Death and Life, but unfortunately two of their floors were closed for some renovations, so I was disappointed that I was unable to view it during my visit to Vienna.

Great early Klimt- death is here- and early Austrian artists with furniture, including Klimt's original furniture he used 2. Open spaces 3. Clean bathrooms but must use ticket to enter by the cafe 4.

Elevators very small and doors wouldn't open for a while so be patient Highly recommended and good value.
