About Kunsthistorisches Museum in Vienna
The Kunsthistorisches Museum stands as Vienna’s crowning jewel for culture and art lovers. Established in 1891 by Emperor Franz Joseph I, this breathtaking institution was created to house the Habsburg dynasty’s vast art collections. Today, the museum offers visitors an immersive journey through artistic achievement and human history, spanning over 5000 years from ancient Egyptian dynasties through the classical antiquity of Greece and Rome to the European Renaissance and Baroque eras.
Explore Artistic Mastery
The museum’s renowned Picture Gallery is a highlight, boasting iconic paintings by legendary artists such as Raphael, Titian, Pieter Bruegel the Elder, Rembrandt and Peter Paul Rubens. Stand before Bruegel’s celebrated "Hunters in the Snow" or admire the dramatic canvases of Caravaggio. Every hall in this extraordinary building reveals yet another slice of artistic genius, from luminous altarpieces to vivid portraits of emperors and nobility.
Ancient Wonders Await
The Kunsthistorisches Museum also captivates visitors with its exceptional collection of ancient artefacts. The Egyptian and Near Eastern Collection invites you to discover intricately decorated coffins, mummies and rare objects from civilizations over 3000 years old. The Greek and Roman galleries feature rare sculptures, mosaics and a coin collection tracing the evolution of currency through over two millennia.
The Habsburg Treasures and Kunstkammer
No visit is complete without exploring the Kunstkammer Wien, a veritable treasury of rare and curious objects once owned by the Habsburgs. Marvel at delicate goldsmith works, opulent jewels, precious timepieces and exceptional ivory carvings. Each piece reflects the craftsmanship and collecting passion of emperors and counts past, telling stories of imperial glories and European history.
