This is a world class art museum with many rooms, some dedicated to just one artist (Bruegel, etc.) If there is one museum to visit in Vienna, this is it. The place is a beautiful Baroque structure with sweeping marble steps. There are rooms dedicated to Italian art, Spanish art, etc. It would take at least 1/2 to one day... more

The Kunsthistorisches Museum in Vienna is truly excellent - there are many wonderful paintings and displays. But for the true devotee of Ancient Egypt, this is the best museum display I have ever seen - and I have had numerous visits to the exhibitions in the British Museum in London, the Cairo Museum and the Louvre display in Paris. Firstly,... more

I visited Kunsthistoriches Museum in July 2009 and I recommend it warmly. I really loved the Egypt collection! There are many works by Italian and Dutch painters and you'll see some of Rembrandt's famous selfportraits. The only reason I don't give out five stars are the complete lack of English translation on the work descriptions. Very annoying. more

Lots of art from the same period-- rooms of it, but not different enough to truely capture my attention. My husband and teen daughter loved it but I got bored quickly. I rated... more

This is a beautiful art museum, even though, as the reviewer said before me, the art is not as great as at the Met in NYC. There are numerous pieces of art, yet there are not many well known pieces. There is a great collection of various European and religious art, as well as a great collection ancient art. To... more

The art is nothing spectacular (better in the Met in NY and the Louvre) but this place is magnificent. The Ancient Art is very impressive more

This is one of the best museums in Europe. The Breughels, Dürers, and Reubens are worth the visit themselves. The interior of the museum is a work of art in itself. Another branch of the museum is called the Schatzkammer, and is located in the Hofburg palace, across the street from the Kunsthistorisches. This is a must see! The crowns... more
