A
museum
or
more
of
a
café
with
a
few
former
exhibition
rooms?
A
prime
example
of
how
you
can
see
how
a
good
museum,
led
by
an
old-school
folklorist,
is
transformed
into
a
junk
room
by
his
son!
Right
at
the
entrance,
visitors
are
greeted
by
the
rainbow
flag/LGBT
flag
and
the
delicious
smell
of
the
café.
You
ask
yourself
whether
you
have
really
arrived
at
the
Folklore
Museum?
The
staff
doesn't
know
their
way
around
and
doesn't
know
current
exhibitions
and
projects.
The
noticeboards
are
amateurishly
cobbled
together
and
not
even
kept
up
to
date.
There
is
also
no
indication
that
the
rooms
on
the
upper
floor
of
the
Schönborn
Garden
Palace
cannot
be
visited.
All
doors
are
open,
although
interesting
to
see,
have
little
to
do
with
the
actual
museum.
In
many
museum
rooms
there
are
glasses,
bottles
and
cutlery
from
the
café.
The
museum
area
is
not
separated
from
the
café,
every
guest
can
just
walk
through
the
museum,
even
on
the
way
to
the
toilet!
I
wonder
why
we
paid
the
entrance
fee
of
8Eur
per
person?
We
didn't
find
any
trace
of
the
museum
concept
either!
Old
and
interesting
exhibits
are
randomly
provided
with
“current”
examples
of
refugee
belongings
and
with
quotes
and
sayings
from
refugees.
Old
information
boards
can
still
be
found.
However,
they
have
no
connection
to
the
new
“exhibits”,
no
explanation
or
description
about
them.
One
can
only
imagine
what
the
authors
of
the
“museum
concept”
wanted
to
express
through
this.
The
refugee
issue
is
important
and
current.
In
this
way
totally
wrong
with
the
history,
tradition,
customs
and
customs.
What
is
also
shocking
is
how
the
exhibits
are
handled.
Many
are
freely
accessible,
exposed
to
light,
moisture
and
wind.
Everything
is
dusty,
dirty
and
a
bit
untidy!
The
smell
of
the
café
and
the
many
visitors
to
the
café
were
more
pleasant
than
the
visit
to
the
museum
itself!
Dear
museum
management!
Please
think
about
what
the
Folklore
Museum
in
Vienna
used
to
be
and
what
role
it
currently
plays?
A
café
in
a
museum
or
old
museum
remains
in
a
café!
It's
such
a
shame!
