Games room? Mozart was wild about gambling and games. The largest room
with view onto Domgasse was probably used as a games room. 11

The Wien Museum takes you to the original locations: be the guest
of the star musicians and composers. Visit the apartment where
Mozart used to live, the whole Mozart clan including his dog Gaukerl,
and where he wrote his opera The Marriage of Figaro. Come and
visit Johann Strau on Praterstrae, where he composed The Blue
Danube, or go to the Pasqualatihaus on Mlker Bastei, where
Beethoven spent many years of his life. Feel the atmosphere of the
Haydnhaus or the house where Schubert was born two jewels of
Old Vienna. Portraits, music, personal belongings, audio samples
tell of the lives and work of the great geniuses of music in their actual
homes. The most important exhibit, though, is the location itself, the
genius loci. Come and feel the aura!

A fascinating mixture of art and history on three floors, from the Neolithic
Age to the early twentieth century. Original stained-glass windows and
sculptures from St. Stephens Cathedral reflect pivotal moments of the
citys history, suits of armour and the Turkish Plunder tell of the warlike
encounters along the way. Maps, urban views, and two models of the city
illustrate the development from medieval burghers town to a capital
and royal residence. Then there are highlights from the nineteenth
century: furniture, clothes, the decorative arts and painting, from Waldmller to Amerling, providing a close-packed, in-depth view of Viennese
Biedermeier. Major works by Klimt, Schiele, Gerstl and Arnold Schnberg,
works from the Wiener Werksttte and the living room of Adolf Loos are
only a few of the exquisite reminders of Vienna around 1900.

The place to explore the history of Roman Vienna today is the very
site where officers housing of the legionary camp of Vindobona
once stood 2000 years ago the Roman Museum on Hoher Markt.
What did Roman Vienna look like? What was life like then?
The exhibition focuses on the booming town of Vindobona, when
more than 30,000 people lived here: a colourful ethnic melting pot
made up of native people of the region and immigrants from all
parts of the Roman Empire.

The Neidhart Frescos are the oldest secular mural paintings in Vienna.
The cycle of paintings from the fourteenth century shows scenes from
the life and work of the minnesinger Neidhart von Reuental, also a
spring festival and a roundel with banquet. The subterranean Chapel
of St. Virgil is one of the best preserved Gothic interiors in the city. It
was built around 1250, possibly as a funerary chapel and later served
as the tomb of a rich merchant family.

The Clock Museum has a collection that is unique in Europe and is

housed in an enchanting and historic building in the inner city of Vienna.
Every full hour, three floors of the building resound with the strikes,
bells and music of the clocks. The show includes types and models
from the whole world from ingenious picture clocks to technically
fascinating astronomical clocks and exquisite models from the
Biedermeier and belle poque eras. Take time for a trip through time!

The Prater Museum takes you on a historical trip through an

institution that was a bizarre mix of the spooky and the fascinating:
Viennas Strong Men, the Bodiless Lady, the Homunculus Shoes
and the Giants Suit document nineteenth century freak shows,
so alien to our taste today. The show tells of the 1873 World Fair, a
flop because of the threat of cholera. Other poignant memories of
previous attractions add to the aura of melancholy like the dragon,
the lindwurm, a relic from a long demolished grotto ride.

In building the Stadtbahn (the light urban railway) around 1900, the
great architect Otto Wagner designed two splendid pavilions for the
Karlsplatz station. One of the two former station buildings houses
a close-packed documentation on Otto Wagner, who produced
works like the Post Office Savings Bank and the church in Steinhof,
architecture to rank with the best in the world. The station building
in Hietzing was designed by Wagner for the imperial family.

Situated in the middle of the Lainzer Tiergarten

is Empress Elisabeths Palace of Dreams.
Nowhere else can you find such a combination
of art, culture and nature! Parts of the original
furnishings, the bedroom and personal belongings convey the feeling
of imperial home life away from the stiff decorum of the official life
at court. Also very popular are the temporary exhibitions on topics of
cultural history.
