What travellers are saying
- Jim822 contributionsFor art lovers, Kunsthistorisches Museum Vienna is a must see. The cornerstone pieces of the museum are the large collection of excellent works by Bruegel, all collected in a single large hall, including master pieces such as the tower of babel, hunters in the snow, peasant wedding. It also has other stunning pieces Vermeer, Giuseppe Arcimboldo, etc.. It also boosts an impressive collection of Habsburgs’ treasure chest, and a large collection of Egyptian and Near Eastern antiquities.
The museums cost 21 UER for adult, but is free to people who is 18 and under. It closes at 6pm.Written 10 September 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

Firstly the building housing the museum is very grand , there was some renovation work happening but this didn’t really have an impact on us . Our tickets were pre booked on a timed entry.
The group had a local guide but we decided to just wander off & meet later .
There is a huge variety of art , some was lovely , some not to our taste . Nevertheless we had a good time & we’re glad we visited .Written 22 August 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

We toured Sisi Museum and saw a performance of the Spanish Riding School, which is attached to Hofburg. You can also take a carriage ride in the area. I recommend going at night to see the National Library lighted...really beautiful.Written 5 September 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- ANGELO VMilan, Italy4 575 contributionsThe "Festung Hohensalzburg" (High Salzburg Fortress) is a large medieval fortress sitting atop the Festungsberg mountain at an altitude of 506 m (1660 ft).
It was erected at the behest of the prince-archbishops of Salzburg. This fortress is 250 m (820 ft) long and 150 m (490 ft) wide and it is one of the largest medieval castles in Europe.
The easiest way to reach the fortress is by the funicular ("FestungsBahn"). A cumulative ticket is available, including both the funicular and the castle visit.
The fortress hosts several museums (medieval weapons, torture instruments, life on the fortress).
The state apartments built starting from 1498 by Archbishop Leonhard von Keutschach are magnificent - especially the Golden Room, and also very beautiful is the Archbishop's Chapel.
From one of the many courtyards there is access to the beautiful Chapel of St. George.
Only a small part of the fortress halls is open to the public, but this is more than enough reason to visit.
From the fortress, walls and walkways you also have breathtaking views of the city of Salzburg and the Salzach river.Written 11 September 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

It shows the most important works by artists from the age of modernism, with great explanations. The Charcoal drawing of Robert Longo in the basement is also very interesting.
The museum costs EUR 19.90 for adult, and is free for people 18 and under. The ticket lady informs us that the museum has great writing for the painting, which is almost the same as the audio guide, so you may choose to forgo the purchase of the audio guide. It is a refreshing service that considers the need of the customer, instead of trying to sell every and anythingWritten 10 September 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- erika.orban_09Medias, Romania57 contributionsThis is a once in a lifetime experience for me. It was wonderful. The staff was very kind and the tour wasn't boring at all. I think that younger kids would enjoy this as well.Written 16 June 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- HelmutKirkland, WA5 498 contributionsThe collection is smaller and focused on the early years of the 1900s. Great works by Schiele, Klimt, Kokoschka, and others. One big plus is that the museum is not as crowded as Belvedere or Albertina. Definitely worth a visit if you are in Vienna.Written 2 September 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- Rosierock03Bristol, UK51 contributionsGood day trip! I took the Swarovski shuttle bus from Innsbruck to Swarovski crystal world. Such a beautiful exhibition with lots of interactive activities. There is an inside exhibition but also lots to do outside, including but not limited to a merry go round, a maze. Each room inside the exhibition is a different theme. There is a cafe and restaurant on site, as well as a huge gift shop, like huggggeee gift shop! In totally it probably took me an hour to complete the inside part of the exhibit and the around half hour outside. The shuttle bus took around 30 minutes to and from Innsbruck city centre. My favourite room was the old Hollywood room, here they display previously worn outfits and accessories by celebrities, there was clothing on display that people like lady gaga, Marlyn monroe, Elton John wore. The also had an ice room, somehow they made it snow real snow and it was like a winter wonderland.Written 25 June 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- wax lyricalLondon, UK24 contributionsWell, there’s a mixed bag of reviews here, I don’t think it’s worth discussing if the Empress Elisabeth was good, bad or just a woman born a little out of her time who married into unbelievable wealth and never quite found her inner soul. I suppose I did discuss it there a bit.
The review must be about the museum itself. Well, it’s popular, summer months it’s rammed full of tourists and Sisi fans and unlike most of the museums in Vienna it’s got a timed entry, and they are quite strict on it.
The audio guide is good, the numbering is peculiar and a bit like a treasure hunt and doesn’t always correspond to what you are looking at ( especially with the jewels and the dresses).
The two MAJOR problems with this museum are 1) the layout of the exhibition, it just can’t cope with the numbers, so corridors get crammed full of people, some trying to take in everything and some racing round on the next step of the Sisi tour.
2) The lighting. I have no idea where to start with this. If you are going to have interesting objects and documents in cases, they need explanation. To be able to read the text next to them would be require them to be lit in a dark room. Now, I get that we are thrust into the dark world of her psyche, I get that we experience the drama and the theatricality of her life. However, subtle lighting on cards in an exhibition is not a tricky thing to achieve. It’s a really odd error and for anyone with sight issues they will be entirely reliant on the audio guide (which is very good - if a little sketchy on her ‘absences’ away form court in England for example. If you know, you know).
I enjoyed the imperial apartment and it gave me a whole new insight into Franz Josef. A man who seemed to be genuinely kind and a little stuffy and perhaps a little out of his depth. However, he did do his best I feel and that comes across in his quarters and his very structured existence there.
The whole exhibition left me I. Toro minds, am I glad I saw it - well yess it’s a fascinating story for history. However, as I walked through Elisabeth’s apartments seeing her bath, her toilet, her bed, I was struck by how this woman who in her lifetime went to the greatest lengths to shield her private life, to retreat from the public gaze is now the poster girl for Vienna. By the time you get through the gift shop and past the Sisi umbrellas, notepads, soaps, and yes socks (!) you may, like me, feel even more sorry for this lonely, spirited and self absorbed soul who in another day and age may have found more to say, do and become. The tragedy of the assassination takes the main focus of the exhibition but perhaps the greatest tragedy is how much she would have hated this, even after over a century has passed I couldn’t help but feel it was slightly intrusive.
And badly lit.Written 30 August 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

This is free so I would recommend this place to anyone in the area and it won't hurt if you also like RedBull.Written 11 July 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- 🌈🌈❤️happyopenmindedtraveler❤️🌈🌈The Netherlands403 081 contributionsMy partner and myself went to see a theatre performance in Halle E inside the Museumsquartier of Vienna (June 2023). On the whole, this is a quite amazing place with colourful seats, spread all around, inside, on the square, to sit abd watch the world going by. It is simply amazing as well as heart-warming how LGBTQIA+ friendly Vienna has become nowadays, a great move forward indeed.

- measham2Accrington, UK294 contributionsHuge cemetery. If, like many, you are only going for the famous composers then depart the tram at tor 2 and enter, you're only a 5-10 minute walk. Strauss, Schubert, Beethoven, Brahms all in the exact same plot. There is a memorial to Mozart but this is not where he is buried. Also on the same plot is the grave stone featured on the front cover and video for Vienna by Ultravox. 10 minutes walk from here you will find the grave of Austrian pop star Falco and it's clear how adored he was/is. Fascinating experience. You could aownd hours walking around I am sure, we went just for those I've mentioned. Probably about 40 minutes on the tram from the centre but we'll worth it.Written 13 August 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- BobN06Avondale, PA721 contributionsGreat for history buffs and fans of old relics and over the top vestments and crowns. Jewels on display are amazing and the wealth on display is a bit beyond comprehension. This is a great addition to a visit to the Kunsthistoriches Museum that contains other “gifts” to the Hapsburg that are also over the top (and probably couldn’t fit into the treasury). Highly recommended.Written 28 June 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- rsolsemSolon, IA104 contributionsOur family enjoyed our time in Haus der Musik. There was lots of information, lots of interaction - and we also loved the science behind sound portion of the museum. It was fun to learn more about the composers and I thought those rooms were very fun and immersive. So fun!Written 13 September 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
