Start with the picture gallery- it's a jewel. It will take half a day or more. Thursdays they are open till 9pm. I went late afternoon and took my time with the pictures and then breezed through the coins and rushed through the Greek and Egyptian antiquities on the ground floor.

Visited this Museum approx. 24 yrs, ago so it was time to revisit. During Klimt's anniversary year, it is still possible to visit the pictures of Klimt, which are normally up on the ceiling, by a bridge, installed in the Museum. Great idea to bring art close to people. It is for me a problem when dozens of signs show... More

I loved spending time in this museum the building and it's interior is as beautiful to look at as the art inside. I spent ages just wandering amongst the wonderful art with my daughter who certainly became a connoisseur of fine art after our trip to Vienna. They also have a wonderful tea room where we sat and enjoyed the... More

There is scaffolding set up so you can look at Klimt's wall murals up close- I think this is through 2012. Large collection of Bruegel- also Flemish and Venetian painters, a room full of Titian. The one room with art from floor to ceiling only had "cheat sheets" for two sides of the room, but we were museumed out by... More

This is one of the world's top art museums for good reason. It's collections of Flemish, Dutch, Italian, French, Spanish, and other master painters is incredible. The Breughel room is spectacular! Since Vienna is celebrating Kilmt's 150th birthday this year, any building with his work showcases it. here, that work is the frieze at the top off the first floor... More

This museum is located in the heart of the "museum district", offers amazing classic art, from all over the world. The layout makes it a bit dark and heavy after 1-2 hours looking at it. Cafe inside the museum is new and cakes are just perfect! Price for one adult is around 12€, worth every penny. The egyptian exhibition is... More

This is an excellent arrt museum. The buidling itself is amazing. I was here for hours and mainly saw only the paintings...I breezed through the first floor on the way out. This is surely one of the finest museums in the world and I would recommend it to anyone visiting Vienna. At first I was a bit put off by... More
