All these pictures that you have seen. They show you everything. I went to the toilets just to admire the design but I expected more. If you go with teenagers they will complain. We walked around but we did not see anything amazing then we took a taxi to go back to central area.

A complete different kind of architectural design in comparison with the antique buildings. Only to be seen from the outside!

I got there by public transport and although, I sometimes missed one of the signs posted, and therefore, had to ask e.g. in a shop etc., I liked the walk, it's just another part of this beautiful city, and so many beautiful houses. . . - small suprises included, like walking past the writer Robert Musil had lived. . ....

Go inside if you must. Hundertwasser is like a sideshow. Walking on some of his floors will challenge your balance. If you like his "stuff," go in; otherwise, look at it from the outside for the sake of having seen it, and keep on walking.

It's only fair that the residents do not want a bunch of tourists constantly invading their privacy. However be aware that this is the case and, for instance, if you are short of time, you might want to skip going there altogether.

This is one of the most spectacular constructions I have ever seen. It is not close to a subway station (might not be so easy to reach, but the way it's worth every step).

Imaginative, creative and inspiring - all the joys of the Baroque are left behind; all the wacky, wildness of architectural wantonness celebrated in this mishmash of styles, delights and surprises.

We visited the museum starting on the first floor, only to realise in the end that we should have gone top-down. The upper floor outlines Hundertwasser's phylosphy and symbolism, so that you can see beyond vivid colors. The place is a bit hard to reach. There's a tram that passes nearby but I can't remember the number. It is best... More

Even if you’re not into art or a fan of Hunderwasser, this is a very interesting building to visit. You’ll identify the building from a great distance for its unusual façade. And also the verdant, lush gardens on the roof top are not run of the mill. Exhibitions inside vary, and there is also a coffee shop inside – not... More
