Tourist attraction Museum

👍👍 There is a public tour every Saturday at 2:30 p.m. Registration is not necessary. With the NÖ Card, entry is free and you only have to pay for the tour. We had a great speaker who spent an hour and a half with us (slightly overtime 😊) but it was very entertaining and an enormous amount of knowledge... People often mention museum, tour,

    Das Schottenstift ist das älteste Kloster in Wien. Seit 1155 leben hier Benediktiner. Heute befindet sich ein Museum im Kloster. Man sieht den Schottenaltar ca. 1470, ein Kunstwerk der Spätgotik. Kunstwerke sind auch eine Tafel des Peter Paul Rubens, frühe niederländische Landschaftsbilder und ein besonders schönes Bild des österreichischen Barockmalers Franz Anton Maulbertsch. Der Eintritt kostet 8 Euro, was nicht zu teuer ist, für das was man zu sehen bekommt

    There is a public tour every Saturday at 2:30 p.m. Registration is not necessary. With the NÖ Card, entry is free and you only have to pay for the tour. We had a great speaker who spent an hour and a half with us (slightly overtime 😊) but it was very entertaining and an enormous amount of knowledge was imparted. Guided tour of the basilica, crypt, sacristy, prelate's hall, library, monastery area and museum. There is a monastery shop with a selected, wide range of items attached. It's also one of those things in Vienna that you see all the time but haven't seen yet.

    Was there for the Saturday tour at 2:30 p.m. The lady explained the history of the monastery very well and vividly. I was surprised at what was on offer. The church and the crypt were once again so interesting with the explanation. Then the highlight is the library. It's worth taking the tour for that alone. Finally, the Gothic altar with the view of Vienna. Just fantastic. I was particularly impressed by the flying baby Jesus at the Annunciation! The 12 euros were worth it. The museum needs to be advertised more.

    És una visita molt recomanable. No és especialment conegut però si teniu temps val la pena. El carrer on està situat està ple de palaus i és una zona molt cèntrica i poc concorreguda.

    Art and natural history museum. Not a lot of info on the origins of the monastery, which is what we were interested in.

    A wonderful museum. The paintings of Rubens and Maulbirch, as well as the Gothic Scottish altar, were especially impressive. I recommend

    (Translated by Google) The museum in the Schottenstift: There is an extensive collection of religious paintings, landscapes, still lifes, paraments, furniture with beautiful inlays, liturgical devices, etc. We recommend the excellent abbey tour with church, crypt, abbey library (the largest private library in Vienna) and the museum. Guided tours of the abbey are available every Saturday at 2.30 p.m., lasting approx. 2 hours. Tickets are available in the monastery shop, where the guided tours begin, right next to the church entrance! (Original) Das Museum im Schottenstift: Hier gibt es eine umfangreiche Sammlung an religiöser Malerei, Landschaftsbilder, Stillleben, Paramente, Möbel mit wunderschönen Intarsien, liturgische Geräte usw. Empfehlenswert ist da die ausgezeichnete Stiftsführung mit Kirche, Krypta, Stiftsbibliothek (die größte Wiener Privatbibliothek) und das Museum. Die Stiftsführungen gibt es jeden Samstag um 14.30 h, Dauer ca. 2 Stunden. Karten gibt es im Klosterladen, wo auch die Führungen beginnen, gleich neben dem Kircheneingang!
