    What a breathtakingly beautiful and vast museum. The first hack you need to be aware of is that if you don’t buy your tickets online, there is a ticket office on the outside but just inside the entrance there are a couple of self service kiosks which you can use to buy the ticket and there’s no line. Take your time as this museum is huge and it covers a lot of history. Have 1 or 2 euro coins with you for locker storage. The building itself is stunningly beautiful. Definitely worth seeing

    Wow!! This museum takes most of the day. We were there from 10:15am to 2:45pm with a brief cafe break and I'm certain that we did not manage to see everything. So worth it! The paintings, the collections, and the special exhibits are all fantastically curated. We saw the Iron Man exhibit and it was pretty cool.

    One word - magnificent! Everything is great organised, from leaving your stuff, and walking only with a phone around, to places for disabled people (you can even borrow wheelchair). I'm really, really satisfied! The architecture of the building is marvellous! There are multiple exhibitions. All of them are in immaculate condition. Great experience! Must see in Vienna!

    Inside and out, this place is beautiful and full of history. The best museum I've been to so far. All the floors have exhibits. I thought I've already seen a lot based on the paintings and sculptures I've seen on floor 1, but I was surprised to see that the floor 0 to 05 (archeology section) has many to offer (Egypt, Greek and gold collections). I liked eating at the ornate restaurant too. It offered good meals for the same prices outside.

    Very interesting and easy to navigate museum. The building it self is amazing. There are two board games that toke my attention. The staff also nice. To save your time buy your ticket online!

    The Magnificence of the exterior architecture of the building is not inferior to the interior splendor of this truly Magnificent Palace of Arts. The precious collection of paintings, housed in numerous halls, delights lovers of fine art. Passing from one masterpiece to another, you forget about time and space, plunging into the atmosphere of True Beauty. You can come here again and again to satisfy your aesthetic hunger. Yes, and physical hunger can be satisfied in the beautiful cafe of the museum, where you can taste delicacies from the chef or drink a cup of the most delicious coffee in Vienna.

    A wonderful museum! A wide collection of paintings with some of them famous. The Egyptian and Greek antiquities are also very beautiful. You can see statues from different periods, jewellery, mummies and many more. The entrance of the museum is very stunning and also you can admire the wonderful dome from there.

    Amazingly diverse place. I don’t live in Vienna anymore, but we still go there about 2-3 times a year and visit the museum nearly every time. Here is what I suggest: 1) Get an annual pass and visit a few times - it’s well worth it. 2) The museum offers Thursday night dinners. It’s lovely. Reservation needed. 3) I love the Egyptian collection

    Definitely top 5 of all the museum I've visited. We're a party of 6 persons for breakfast, gleamed up with high tea and prosecco. A magnificent surroundings decor. We later went on to explore the museum in it's glory, and spent good 5 hours here.

    This is truly one of the nicest museums for art history that I know. The building is beautiful and the art collection even better. There is so much to see that you can easily spend a few hours there. Not only the paintings of Rembrandt, Rubens and Titian are worth visiting but there is also a nice collection of Egyptian antiques.

    Stunning building and worth seeing for that alone. This is a museum of paintings from the masters. There is also an Egyptian and Greek artifacts section that is very well done. There is a popular restaurant in the center. The museum is well laid out.

  • 5/5 Kim M. 1 year ago on Google
    Wow, breathtaking architecture from the moment you walk in. The building was already set in itself. We haven’t even seen the halls yet when we were greeted by these intricate details from ceiling to floor… The indoor cafe was even more beautiful with the marble details and the gold accents! Plus, the high ceiling that stretched into a dome. We didn’t get to try it but it seemed to have a long line but just looking at it was already a sight. Amazing collection of art pieces spanning from different eras. Below are some favorites that are worth your time! Make sure to find these incredible works. There weren’t too much people when we went. Didn’t have to wait in line at all except for the washroom… but the museum was spacious and the flow of people was manageable so it didn’t feel tight.

  • 5/5 Mathias Telling F. 7 months ago on Google
    I am not really a big museum person, but this was a great and absolutely stunning museum! Even if you're not into art, it might still be worth a visit just to experience the beautiful building. I really enjoyed the Roman, Greek, and Egyptian sections of the museum. We spent about 2 hours there, but if you're interested in art, you could probably spend a lot more time. You're not allowed to bring bags inside the museum, but there is an area where you can store your bag for a €1 or €2 coin, which you'll get back when you retrieve your bag. This might just be one of the most impressive museums I have visited.

    One of Vienna's giant museums in terms of importance but also beauty. I really enjoyed the collections within the museum and the layout of the exhibits in the timeline.The total visit takes from 3 to 5 hours, but obviously depends on how passionate you are.I absolutely recommend the visit because it is both an architectural and historical jewel!😲😲

    The museum has excellent design. You can tour the museum worry-free by leaving your valuables in the lockers. For a modest cost, an audio guide is provided. The experience of viewing exquisitely crafted objects was very remarkable.

    This museum is impressive from start to finish; every penny spent on it is totally worth the experience. From artifacts and art dating back to 2000 B.C. to the place itself, everything falls into an impeccable surrounding of peace and beauty. It's incredible what humans can do with enough creativity, imagination, and goodwill.

    Amazing art museum. I recommend to take audio guide and get ready to spent the whole day here. Bruegel, Rubens, Van Eyck… unforgettable experience. Very nice Egyptian and Greek collection, very beautiful lighting (!!) and interior. And of course everyone should go to the museum cafe, it’s quite pricey but worth it.

    This place is magnificent. Here you can see everything started from old Egypt to Italian art, like #Caravaggio, Titian and others. here is perfect artworks like Bruegel, Bosch, Rubens and more. There is very beautiful roof painting when you go from central entrance from 1st to second floor, this painting is perfection, no words can describe it. If you are in Vienna you must see this Museum this is just perfect. 👌🏼👌🏼😊

    (Translated by Google) Vienna's second most important museum, and second in impressions. We visit after the Museum of Natural History, if there is time. If time is short, and you have to choose one museum, then definitely go opposite to the museum of natural history! Surprisingly more paintings and sculptures are remembered for the collection of royal dishes. Not the Louvre, not the Hermitage and certainly not the Uffizi, but if you love art, it's worth a visit. (Original) Второй по значимости музей Вены, и по впечатлениям тоже второй. Посещаем после музея естествознания, если есть время. Если времени мало, и музей надо выбрать один, то, однозначно идем напротив в музей естествознания! На удивление больше картин и скульптур запомнилась коллекция царской посуды. Не Лувр, не Эрмитаж и уж точно не Уффици, но если любите искусство, посетить стоит.

    (Translated by Google) You should not leave Vienna without visiting the Museum of Art History of Vienna, it is one of the most impressive collections in the world, the symbol of the museum is Madonna Green, as well as the Goddess of Babylon, a rich collection of sculptures and Egyptian culture. (Original) ვენის ხელოვნების ისტორიის მუზეუმის ნახვის გარეშე ვენიდან არ უნდა წამოხვიდეთ, ერთ-ერთი შთამბეჭდავი კოლექციაა მსოფლიოში, მუზეუმის სიმბოლოა მადონა მწვანეზე, აგრეთვე ბაბილონის გოდოლი, არის სკულპტურებისა და ეგვიპტური კულტურის მდიდარი კოლექცია, შენობის ინტერიერიც ულამაზესია, განსხვავებით პრადოსგან ფოტოების გადაღება შეიძლება.

    Amazing museum! I loved that they had audioguides in my native language: Ukrainian. Strongly recommend you to get an audio guide, it's really interesting. Also plan a lot of time for this place, it's huge, could easily spend an entire day or even two here.

    A cultural and educational experience for all ages with ambience and setting of grand palace. The museum has audio recorded guided tours in various languages [English, French, Spanish and Korean] in a player device for rental. A restaurant is also on premises serving traditional and seasonal cuisine

    Worth the visit and budget friendly! The museum had three themes which was a very good way to experience three different themes in a single museum. The pieces were beautiful and the museum itself was just mesmerizing. I would say it's worth the visit and it must be one of the best and classic experiences you can get at a museum in Vienna. If you’re a student ask for a the student priced tickets!

    It has become one of my favorite museums in the world, the expositions are incredibly beautiful, the decoration is spectacular. I spent about 6 hours because it's huge. In my opinion if you have to choose just one museum in Vienna this is the one you should choose.

    The Vienna Art History Museum is a World Class Museum located in the Museum district of Vienna. Well designed and laid out for the different periods of Art with an emphasis on the great masters of the Renaissance and Classical periods. Highly recommended! Great coin collection rooms also. Amazing place!

    I’m usually not a museum person but this place was just incredible. If you are into architecture and design, you will absolutely love this place. The collection of art and artifacts is unreal. The moment you step into this museum you’re all of its beauty. Spend a few hours here during your stay in Vienna and you will forever remember your experience.

  • 5/5 Marko H. 4 months ago on Google • 58 reviews
    Absolutely and by far, the most interesting building and museum in Vienna. It consists of multiple exhibitions, divided by the time and geographical position of the given state, dating all the way back to a few thousand B.C. The exhibition comprises some Egyptian mummies, both human and animal, which were the most fascinating part. Fun fact: In the Middle Ages, people believed mummies had healing powers, so they ate them, while aristocrats had unwrapping parties at their mansions.

    We had a great afternoon in this museum, my two teenagers really enjoyed the Roman and Egyptian displays whilst I loved the art. Information was available in both English and German and the free to use cloakroom made for a very comfortable visit. Would say it is a must do on a visit to Vienna.

    I have limited knowledge about the art and paintings, but I am always impressed and obsessed to see these gorgeous paintings/handcraft you only known them before in the school books: the tower of the Babel ,the amazing doom, the Saliera, the Master of Furies,of course, the rarities from China! These are all gems by the human beings worldwide, you could enjoy the day wandering in this museum. I try to picture several things in below pictures.

    One of the best museums I have visited in Europe. Well organised, it covers a vast area of different cultures around the world with beautiful artefacts. An amazing cafeteria/ restaurant. Like most good museums you need to dedicate enough hours to absorb it and surely a place that needs visiting more than ones.

    A LOT of Cultural Treasures under one roof:) Spectacular Art collections from Gabsburg's Royal 🏡; Coin's Cabinette, Sculptures, Mechanic toys,Egypt Artefacts awaiting 4 √isitors too... Nice coffee 🏠 and Museum Shop; Elevator for tired person's right from the lockers/Rest rooms. And...Huge number of Fine 🎨 from Elders like Rembrandt, Bruguel, Cranach,Durer,A. Van Dyke, Rubens,Titian, Tintoretto ,G. Reni, Caravaggio Etc,Etc... Highly Recommended. PS: because some if the Spectaculars paintings are old and need special environment like spec .🤒, 💦 ,And Light, especially Light, it's not bright at all in some rooms. Ihad get advice to let my 👀 rest before starting the tour ,to let my 👀 Get used to conditiones. Or Just to use the phone as the magic google ";).

    Huge museum that can definitely fill an entire afternoon if that's what you're looking for. From the various trinkets and treasures obtained by the Habsburgs over the years or the picture gallery featuring the likes of Rubens, Rembrandt, and Pieter Bruegel, if you are an art lover, there is something here for you. The building itself is also simply beautiful and the cafe is definitely worth a visit too. Couches in the picture gallery are a great idea, I definitely felt fatigue in my legs by the time I got up there.

    Wow! This museum is HUGE. We were there for 4.5 hours and didn't even see everything (We probably saw about 75 %). The museum was constructed in 1871. In addition to the exhibits, the ornate decor of the ceilings, walls, and grand staircases of the building really add to the experience. Admission was 22 Euros for a combination ticket to see the Treasury Museum on another day. The exhibits are located on four floors: Floor Zero: Entrance with the cupola hall with a circular opening in the ceiling that is breathtakingly beautiful. This is also where you can rent Audio Guides- which we did get for a total of 8 Euros for two. Floor 0.5: Egyptian and Near Eastern Collection. Greek and Roman Antiquities are also located on this level. Kunstkammer Vienna Collection features precious metals Floor 1- Picture Gallery with Dutch, German, Italian, Spanish and French Paintings from the 15th century until 1800 Floor 2- Coin Collection- Features more than 2500 coins, medals and paper currency Despite the magnificent exhibits, this was a 4 Star 🌟 experience for me. The layout wasn't user friendly. Many of the exhibits were in small adjoining rooms, which resulted in A LOT of walking. Additionally, the climate control was very uneven. Some areas were extremely hot, and other rooms air conditioned. The staff were so focused on everyone wearing their 😷 masks, that it felt a bit extreme. I was glad that I had the Audio Guide, because not all signs are in English. Overall, I really enjoyed this museum, and ideally, I would like to go again over a period of two days, so I could enjoy it even more. I took a lot of photos, which are attached.

    A place of pilgrimage for all art lovers. The building itself is a masterpiece, but the collection is absolutely fantastic. Titian, Caravaggio, Bruegel, Velazques, Vermeer and many many others. And all of them are on a permanent view. Add here temporary exhibitions and you’ll get yourself an art paradise! A must in Vienna! Don’t miss out.

    I love this museum. Wow! From Egypt to Italy and Greece. From Pharaons and Emperors to Kings. Everything they owned and left for everybody to see in this big building. Full of decorative things and jewelry from those ages. Rooms beautifully decorated with murals, paintings and indirect lights. There is a beautiful restaurant to have an elegant dinner with your couple or a coffee with a great dessert. A place to visit in Vienna!

    Incredible collections in a well organized 4-wing layout, inside a gorgeous palace with grand branching stairs, a beautiful cafe, and ornate murals (some of which were painted by Klimt). We saw so many super-famous paintings here that it was hard to keep track! And upstairs there are tons of very comfy couches to sit on while you admire the art. Vienna has AMAZING museums and this is one you don't want to miss out on!

    I recently visited the library museum in Vienna and I must say, it was an incredible experience. From the moment I walked through the doors, I was struck by the beauty and grandeur of the building. The architecture and design were stunning, and the attention to detail was truly remarkable. The museum is home to an impressive array of rare and historical manuscripts, books, and documents. I was amazed to see some of the oldest and most valuable books in the world, including ancient texts and illuminated manuscripts. The museum also offers a variety of exhibits and displays that showcase the history of the library and its impact on the world. Throughout my visit, I found the staff to be friendly, knowledgeable, and helpful. Overall, I would highly recommend the library museum in Vienna to anyone with an interest in literature, history, or architecture. It is truly a remarkable and unique experience that should not be missed. I give it a perfect rating of 5/5.

    We spent 4h in there and only managed to see one floor in real depth (1/4 of it was closed for a changing exhibit too). Definitely recommend to start on the 1st floor, where all the paintings are, if you only have time for the highlights. The building itself is a treat all on its own. Couches in every big room were allowed for frequent breaks, I loved that. We'll have to come back for the sculptures, the gold collection and the Roman and Egyptian exhibits.

    Great museum as a tourist. Definitely buy the audio tour when you get inside. Very convenient and easy to use for only 6 EUR. I will say it could easily take you 5 hours+ to really get the most out of your admission. Plan to be on your feet and see some incredible things and probably be overwhelmed.. bring water and a snack probably. We gave up after about 2 hours just because we were sort of done, but definitely wanted to continue. Just incredible masterpiece after masterpiece and literally legendary artifacts abound. Awesome..

    Very well maintained museum with terrific self tour. The museums treasures are gorgeous and beyond plentiful, but after a while , it begins to get a bit mundane. The portrait gallery is interesting but not exquisite. If you have the time do visit but if limited time frame you can miss it.

    This museum offers a fantastic opportunity for photography enthusiasts while showcasing remarkable paintings and sculptures. Exploring all the exhibitions here can be time-consuming, and it's important to note that there's no option to leave for a break. Instead, you'll find a restaurant within the museum, albeit slightly pricier. The staff, on the whole, is friendly, although some individuals may come across as a bit rude. However, the food is delicious, and I finally had the chance to savor a Vienna schnitzel that lived up to its reputation. Overall, it was a great experience, and I highly recommend visiting this place.

    It was one of the best museums I have done in Europe! The architecture of the inside and the outside of the monument is a piece of art. The first floor is amazing for all the people who love the mineralogy and paleontology. The second floor is like an alive encyclopedia of the different animals living currently on earth. My only critic will be : All the explications and names are not translated in english on the second floor. I think you will need minimums 3 or 4 hours if you want to visit the full museum (I have needed 5 hours) (Full price 16€)

    This is an amazing building and some amazing art. It gets busy so picking quiet times is good. If you are just doing the tourist on a cold wet afternoon then no problem, if you want to study something specific it is not so good, you cannot get close to anything without being told off, it is very much tourist not study which actually totally defeats the original purpose of learning. It is also a big collection and you really need lots of time. The restaurant might be one of the most stunning anywhere.

    Hey Vienna, how are you? Today me and my girlfriend went to This Amazing Museum. It was busy, but that’s okay! We had fun counting frogs in artworks and laughing at paintings. There were many old people and many children and many people aged 25-60 as well. So I would say, even tho I am not two of those categories, it’s a place for anyone and everyone. PS. These people have my favourite armour on display and I just love it so much. As much as I loved this place, there’s like… three or maybe four different gift shops. They do have different things though, so I’d recommend visiting them all.

  • 5/5 Jon S. 4 years ago on Google
    The grand entrance hall gives a promise of the masterpieces inside. Come well rested and fed, and bring water. You can spend days in here, without seeing it all. This might be the most impressive art collection I have ever seen. Highly recommended!

  • 4/5 kae 4 years ago on Google
    Definitely beautiful art, and cheap tickets. Children are free. The garden in front is nice, it’s better to go in winter or spring. The only downside is, is the fact you have to leave your coat and bag in the tiny locker room. It’s packed, and it takes time for someone to get a locker or drop your stuff off at the coat room. Definitely would go again, just maybe on a less busy day.

  • 5/5 Bei Li Y. 4 years ago on Google
    I would like to give more than 5 Stars. Absolutely magnificent!!! No words can describe what I have experienced ever. Sure that all depends what have you been... We spent the whole day inside can't even finish. Definitely will revisit if we travel to Vienna again.

  • 5/5 Teddy 3 years ago on Google
    Immensely beautiful interior - worth a visit just for that matter. Think St. Peter's, imperial Roman palaces. Habsburg artefacts presented in the building's left wing (ground floor) are flabbergasting. Egyptian and Roman collection is nice. Has a café below its dome, makes for some real next level relaxation.

  • 5/5 Jan Z. 4 years ago on Google
    I visited this museum after living abroad for a year and this was truly flashed by its majestic beauty and the large collections of art. This was the first moment I felt really happy about being back home again. I would definitely recommend to get an audio guide and plan to stay at least half a day. Have some coffee and food in the beautiful cafe if you want to take a break. The Kunsthistorisches Museum won't disappoint you.

  • 5/5 Michael C. 4 years ago on Google
    If you love Flemish art from the old masters then the Kunsthistorisches museum in Vienna cannot be missed. It has such a wealth of great art that even self-portraits by Rembrandt are tucked away in hidden corners. Great idea to etch all the information for each work onto the protective rail in front of the art. This gives much more space and saves having to lean forward all the time to make out the text. Well worth a visit to the cafe as well, if only to experience genuinely aloof Viennese waiters.

  • 5/5 Talissa B. 4 years ago on Google
    The museum is very nice, especially the entrance hall and stairs. For an art museum I found their collections to be very limited to European art from the same couple of periods. If you are a non-religious person you would get easily bored by the amount of Christian paintings. Very small but interesting Egyptian wing and a very nice couple rooms of ancient collections of vases, clocks, silverware and other objects.

  • 5/5 Mrs. P. 4 years ago on Google
    I truly love this place. Beautiful gallery with a very smart way to present the pictures. I recommend it for all ages. As a Kindergarten teacher I also browse thru the galleries with kids 3 to 6 years. There is a lot to explore apart from the special expeditions. Give it a go, it never disappoints

  • 5/5 Nick M. 4 years ago on Google
    One of the most beautiful museums I think I have ever been into and wish I had more time to have spent there. Luckily the day I went had Caravaggio and Bernini on exhibit and was impressed and thrilled to see such great works. I would give AT LEAST 2 to 3 hours if in a rush. I unfortunately paid for entry to both the museum and imperial Treasury but please remember the Treasury is closed on Tuesdays. Does cost to get in and do have free bathrooms. Also have nice little shop and a place to sit and eat. A must while in Vienna!

    Krásné muzeum, na své si zde přijdou milovníci všech epoch umění. Najdete zde jak starověk, tak středověk a novověk. Užité umění, sochařství a jiná média. Nejvíce mě zaujala obrazová galerie s díly od umělců jako jsou Rembrandt, Rubens, Velázquez a další. Z monumentální galerie jsme měli opravdu pěkný zážitek. Jediné mínus jsou ceny v kavárně, která se nachází přímo uvnitř v muzeu, kafe si zde dáte za více než 5 eur.

    Es war sehr interessant und das Gebäude ist wirklich wunderschön. Die Ausstellungen sind auch sehr informativ, allerdings ist das lay-out der Ausstellungen und die Karten, die an manchen Stellen zu finden sind etwas verwirrend, vor allem wenn man davor noch nie dort war und das café ist meiner meinung nach etwas zu überteuert. Alles in allem war es nett, aber es hätte definitiv besser sein können

    (Translated by Google) A collection of famous paintings from all over Europe, as well as a huge collection of treasures from the Habsburgs of Austria. There is an audio guide in Chinese, but most of the numbered ones are not recorded. Only a few selected collections are available. If the English listening ability is acceptable, it is recommended to choose the English audio guide. But even so, we only watched two-thirds in six hours. It is estimated that it will take a whole day to read all of them carefully, or at least from noon to night (one day a week, it will be open until late in the evening. Closed). XD will come again if there is a chance in the future (Original) 收藏来自全欧洲的著名画作,以及奥地利哈布斯堡王朝收藏的海量珍宝。有中文语音导览,但大多数标有号码的都没有录制,只有少数精选藏品才有,英语听力尚可的话建议选择英语语音导览。但即便这样,我们用六个小时也才看了三分之二,估计全部认真看完需花上一整天,或者至少要从中午一直到晚上(每周有一天会开到晚间较迟才闭馆)。若以后有机会还会再来XD

    (Translated by Google) The museum building has a Baroque style and faces the Natural Museum. The exhibits inside are large in scope and high in quality, which makes me linger. I originally planned to visit the Natural History Museum and the Art History Museum in half a day, but they all changed to one day each. In this way, I also feel that I am still unfinished, and I haven't seen it fully. Many beautiful paintings, children rushed to the Tower of Babel. Most western oil paintings are related to biblical stories. Children are not interested in watching them. The art history museum is really great because children are not interested in watching them. Like +10086. The building is beautiful, the exhibits are beautiful, I love it so much, I will come again (Original) 博物館建築有巴洛克風格,和自然博物館面對面相望。裏面的展品範圍大,質量上乘,讓我流連忘返,本來計劃各半天時間参觀自然史博物館和藝術史博物館,結果都更改成各用一天時間参觀。就這樣,也覺得意猶未盡,沒有看全面看過癮。很多精美畫作,孩子奔着巴別塔而來。大部分西方油畫都是跟聖經故事有關,孩子沒有興趣看,坐在館里的大沙发上休息,提供沙發這點,藝術史博物館真的太棒了,這樣可以使人舒適愉悅的参觀。點贊+10086。建築美麗,展品美麗,我太喜歡了,還要再來

    (Translated by Google) Even though I'm definitely not an art expert, the collection is unique. The Egyptian collection in particular is a must! But also the Roman, Greek, Etruscan part fantastic. You should take enough time with you, you should calculate a good 4 hours. I only have the paintings on the upper floor sporadically, partly Inspected very superficially. By the way, the coffee house offers quite a large selection, smaller and larger dishes, drinks anyway, and the quality is really very good, I didn't expect it. Also the staff very friendly! - I would love to come back. (Original) Trotzdem ich sicher kein Kunstexperte bin, die Sammlung ist einzigartig. Speziell die Ägyptische Sammlung ist ein Muss! Aber auch der römische, griechische, Etrusker-Teil phantastisch. Man sollte genug Zeit mitnehmen, gut 4 Stunden sollte man einrechnen. Dabei habe ich die Gemälde im oberen Stockwerk nur punktuell, z.T. Sehr oberflächlich besichtigt. Übrigens das Kaffeehaus bietet eine Recht große Auswahl, kleinere und größere Speisen, Getränke ohnehin, und ist qualitativ wirklich sehr gut, hatte ich nicht erwartet. Auch das Personal sehr freundlich! - Komme gerne wieder.

It is true that there are things that are only in German but most things, and the main thing, are in English. They have audio guides in Spanish. You must go early if you want to see it whole. They are two plants that, no matter how curious you are, 4-5 hours will surely pass you. (Original) Precioso... es un gran museo.

    (Translated by Google) As one of the most important art museums worldwide, anything but five stars would be implausible! Regardless of this, the Kunsthistorisches Museum is a work of art both inside and outside without exhibits. The entrance hall and the staircase alone are exceptionally beautiful. And if you look up at the pictures of Klimt in the "Stiegenhaus", you know that this house is unique. There is no need to say anything about the collection itself. Every tourist, but also all Viennese, should treat themselves to this artistic delight! (Original) Als eines der bedeutendsten Kunstmuseen weltweit, wären alles andere als fünf Sterne unglaubwürdig!

    Unique museum and it is a real gem. Although the exterior is certainly impressive, seems a bit modest in comparison with the magnificent interior. The Museum of Art History is a key museum in Vienna's rich culture. A grand entrance with a grand staircase and a glimpse of a glorious dome will even intrigue even superficial art lovers. There is also the famous Canova sculpture 'Tezey Kills Centaur', surrounded by lavish baroque details. The Kunsthistorisches Museum Collection is exceptionally beautiful and rich. It includes six collections - Kunstkammer, Picture Gallery, Egyptian and Middle Eastern Collection, Greek-Roman Collection, Coin Collection and Library. Next to Kunstkammer we were most impressed with the collection of paintings, one of the best in Europe. Here you can see works by famous masters of painting such as Caravaggio, Rafael, Velazquez, Tiziano, Tintoretto, Rubens or Dürer. Paradise for painting lovers. One of the most important and largest museums was created from the Habsburg collection of works of art, especially from portraits, collections and paintings by Ferdinand Tirol, Emperor Rudolf II. and Archduke Leopold Wilhelm. Such a unique museum rarely exists in the whole world.

    (Translated by Google) The Covid measures regulations are met very correctly: at the kiosk in front of the museum I received a ticket and mask on request; In the "Beethoven moves" exhibition, announcements were used to remind people to keep their distance .... In Egyptology it was rather very relaxed and the supervisor was almost invisible in the background. The Egyptian department is very, very worth seeing and the atmosphere in the rooms is calm and spherical so in the awareness of being between immensely old objects, to stroll around and to taste, to turn your attention here and there - a "strolling" visit to the museum with muse and "Despite" the MNS protection is recommended for heart and soul ... (Original) Sehr korrekt sind die Covidmassnahmenvorschriften erfüllt: am Kiosk vor dem Museum erhielt ich Ticket und Maske nach Anfrage; in der "Beethoven bewegt" Ausstellung wurde per Durchsagen an das Abstandhalten erinnert....In der Ägyptologie war es eher sehr locker wenige Leute und die Aufsicht hielt sich sehr im Hintergrund fast nicht zu erkennen. Die ägyptische Abteilung ist sehr sehr sehenswert und die Stimmung in den Räumen besonnen und sphärisch so im Bewusstsein sich zwischen immens alten Gegenständen zu befinden, herumzuwandeln und zu goustieren, mal nach da und da die Aufmerksamkeit zu richten - ein "Schlendernder" Museumsbesuch mit Muse und dem MNS Schutz zum "Trotz" ist empfehlenswert für Herz und Seele...

    (Translated by Google) A timeslot in which the museum security does not tolerate a deviation of 2-3 minutes (although nobody else was there anyway).

    Great museum with a lot of art from the Renaissance. Italian, Spanish, Dutch and Flemish masters are all represented and plentiful including a Vermeer. They also have nice sized Egyptian, Greek, and Roman artifact exhibits. The last area is reserved for showing off the shiney baubles that aren't in the treasury as well as a sign that says as much. Don't miss the staircase decorated by Klimt. Hopefully one day soon they will TAKE THE COVID MASK OFF THE CANOVA. Don't get me wrong it's kind of funny, but you only have two Canova's...maybe put it on the bust of Francis, instead of the neoclassical masterpiece in the middle of the staircase.

    This museum is simply stunning. Architecturally it would be worth of a royal palace, with huge halls, domes, fine plaster decorations and monumental stairs. The beauty of the collections hosted is simply sublime. Absolutely remarkable the paintings collections were Tiziano, Canaletto, Tintoretto and Rubens painting literally triumph. I admireed a lot the treasury and the Roman and Egyptian collections. Very appreciable and enjoyable as well is the cafeteria under the main dome...delicious apple strudel. Very well organized ad well under the services aspects and accessibility. A proper visit require almost a full day. Absolutely recommended.

    I have been to museum all over the world, I have to say this is one of the best. The building itself is a museum with its lavish rooms and wonderful baroque style. The collection from ancient(Egyptian, Greek) to the collections from each Kaiser are amazing. To top it off the paintings displayed on the first floor of the old masters just makes it complete.

    Excellent collection in a beautiful building. A little difficult to navigate, but such a great place to get “lost.” Most of the displays appear to be constructed to allow the guests to get as close as possible, which I really appreciate. Obviously there are still a lot of things that are behind glass, but there’s a lot that you are able to stand within inches of and really get great photographs.

    Great place that you can easily spend your whole day into. It has amazing exhibitions. The staff is very friendly and tries to accommodate you and to answer all of your questions. Some of the rooms were closed for renovations but we still spent 5 hours in the museum. The only problem is that the cafe doesn’t sell food after a certain hour.

    I have a fun exploring this museum. It was one that I wasn’t sure that I was going to go even with its high ratings. But it was a lot of fun to walk the ancient Egyptian exhibit and see all of the sarcophagus and the little green hippo, was adorable. All of the different sculptures were beautiful and then you go to the next floor and you get to see a bunch of famous artworks, which were just as stunning, so I was very happy that I ended up taking the time to go to this museum it was well worth it.

    This museum is the first reason I visited Vienna. Spare at least half day to enjoy this great venue especially if you love Bruegel. You have to leave your backpacks in the lockers so you need 1 or 2 Euro coins. You’ll get it back when you open the locker. Museum’s gift shop offers a variety of souvenirs. Under 19 is free admission.

    My visit to the Kunsthistorisches Museum in Vienna was an unforgettable immersion into the world of art and culture. This remarkable institution, with its stunning architecture and extensive collections, is a treasure trove of human creativity and history. The museum's grand facade and opulent interiors provided a fitting backdrop for its incredible art treasures. The vast and diverse collection boasts masterpieces from various eras and regions, from classical antiquities to European paintings and decorative arts. Wandering through the museum's halls, I was captivated by the sheer depth and quality of the artwork on display. It's impossible not to be moved by the likes of Vermeer, Rembrandt, and Bruegel, among many others. The museum staff were not only knowledgeable but also genuinely passionate about the collections, offering valuable insights and guidance. The attention to detail, from the presentation of the art to the informative exhibits, made the visit both educational and awe-inspiring. A visit to the Kunsthistorisches Museum is an enriching and visually stimulating experience, and I highly recommend it to anyone with an interest in art and history. It's a cultural gem that truly showcases Vienna's status as a hub of artistic heritage and a testament to the enduring power of human creativity.

    Another lovely museum in a gorgeous old building. Depending on your interests, you could spend a few hours here (their Greek statues are amazing). We ate at the cafe which was delicious. There can be a wait here - we were lucky and arrived when there was a short queue but while we were eating it grew fairly long.

    If you love art and historical significance of the art on the history then it's a must visit place. There are amazing paintings and coin collection also. But I think the most remarkable thing is how good they have maintained those painting even after so many centuries. You have to give atleast 2 hours for whole museum. But it really worth it.

    Gorgeous! Make sure to reserve tickets in advance and always expect a queue. Great activity which will keep you busy for 2-3 hours. Beautiful painting and a wonderful building.

    Great museum to visit. Architecture of the museum it's self is just amazing. It's a huge museum. Make sure to allocate enough time if you are planning to visit every wing of the museum. I would say it will take minimum 2 hours if you do a "fast paced" view of the collections.

    Loved it!! A totally worth-it experience! Stayed there for more than 2 hours and it still felt like i had so much to see. Prepare yourself for a unique experience if you’re a fan of art and not only

    The building itself and the art enclosed inside is from another world. It's a pleasant museum. Almost in every room, you can find sofas either to contemplate the paintings or to rest your feet. Also, there is a restaurant where you can have a break surrounded by this mesmerising walls.

    Amazing museum if you love art. There aren’t only paintings but also a section for ancient Egypt and one for Ancient Greece and Roman Empire. The building is beautiful as well. It’s better to pre book your ticket. You can buy it online and use it whatever day and time you would like. I would suggest to make an online reservation for the cafe inside the museum. It’s worth visiting and it’s better to pre book in order to avoid the long queue.
