A very interesting museum, there are not only things like chimney sweeps, but also old toys, a teddy bear, a doll, a merklin, a schuco, steam engines, a car with a coffee grinder, a boat, etc........... Great experience!!! Check it out for a worthwhile and free entry!!! Nice friendly staff!!!

(Translated by Google) During a guided tour through the museum, the chimney sweep's profession in the past, but also its tasks today, is presented. Old, beautiful stoves are shown and discussed. Then the working world of the chimney sweep is demonstrated on exhibits. The collection of many chimney sweep figures made of many materials round off the tour. This year's special exhibition “Once upon a time there was the chimney sweep church” with many exhibits and memorabilia can be seen in the large room. Finally, as is usual with chimney sweeps, there is a glass of sparkling wine or sparkling orange. Appointments can be arranged freely. Admission is free. (Original) Bei einer Führung durch das Museum wird der Beruf des Rauchfangkehrers in der Vergangenheit, aber auch dessen Aufgaben heute vorgestellt. Es werden alte, schöne Öfen gezeigt und besprochen. Dann wird an Ausstellungsstücken die Arbeitswelt des Rauchfangkehrers vorgeführt. Die Sammlung von vielen Rauchgfangkehrerfiguren aus vielen Materialien runden die Führung ab. Im großen Raum ist die diesjährige Sonderausstellung „Es war einmal die Rauchfangkehrerkirche“ mit vielen Ausstellungs- und Erinnerungsstücken zu sehen. Abschließend gibt es, wie es bei den Rauchfangkehrern üblich ist, ein Glas Sekt oder Sekt-Orange. Termine können frei vereinbart werden. Der Eintritt ist frei.

History

The fourth districts Museum with historical information around the Wieden (vienese name of the district) as it was centuries ago. Focused on the traditional trade of the chimney sweepers.

I visited this museum as part of the “Long Night of Museums” and was thrilled. All questions were answered in detail and the exhibits are really great. I would be happy to come back to deepen my knowledge.

A very good and beautiful museum was recently very well liked today in the Wieden District Museum on September 27th, 2023 Seidl Michael and Karin Seidl 2380 Perchtoldsdorf

Highly recommended and interesting. The exhibits from different eras were very lovingly designed.

Small and different, leadership should be done.

There are so many beautiful things!!! Worth a look and free entry!!! Ticket free!!! Steam engines,"teddy, dolls, schuco merklin, toys, antique chimney sweep related stuff!! Real curiosities!!!

The special “Toys” exhibition impressed me because I felt transported back to childhood and youth. A visit to the museum is definitely recommended

very nice, little bit small

This museum is well worth a visit if you're in Vienna - entry is free and it's got lots of interesting stuff to see (although all the information is in German). Hermann, the staff member on duty when we visited was incredibly friendly and did his best to give us information and even gave us a couple of glasses of fizz each! All in all, well worth a visit if you're in Vienna and want something a little less touristy and little more quirky!
