Planning your visit
Kunsthistorisches Museum, also known as the Museum of Fine Arts Vienna, was built to display the Habsburg art collection, and Emperor Franz Joseph I helped establish its late-nineteenth-century setting. The Gemäldegalerie contains Pieter Bruegel the Elder’s The Tower of Babel, while the Kunstkammer Vienna is home to Cellini’s Saliera.
The Egyptian and Near Eastern Collection presents more than 17,000 objects spanning nearly 4,500 years, and the Coin Cabinet occupies the museum’s second floor. The Naturhistorisches Museum stands opposite across Maria-Theresien-Platz, while the Cupola Hall Cafe provides a convenient break inside Kunsthistorisches Museum Wien.
The main entrance is on Maria-Theresien-Platz, and the Burgring 5 side entrance provides barrier-free wheelchair access with staff assistance to the lift. The Volkstheater U-Bahn is the museum’s named underground stop on U3; the Museumsquartier metro station is also a nearby U2 orientation point. Regular opening hours Tuesday to Sunday are 10 a.m. to 6 p.m., with Thursday opening until 9 p.m.
For independent viewing, KHM Vienna offers a multimedia audio guide with content in several languages, while a guided museum tour provides structured context for major collections. A skip-the-line admission ticket or timed entry ticket may describe the booking format, but neither term should be treated as a guarantee that entrance procedures or any required security checks disappear; a Vienna Pass is a separate sightseeing product, so confirm its current admission arrangement before relying on it.
Before you buy
Concrete caveats: security, bags, cancellation, time slots.
- Both displayed offers show limited availability, so the preferred ticket may disappear for popular visiting periods or last-minute bookings.
- The combo costs 32 EUR versus 22 EUR for museum-only admission; the extra 10 EUR is worthwhile only if you also plan to visit the Imperial Treasury.
- Neither displayed offer states a cancellation or refund policy. Confirm the final checkout terms before paying if your schedule may change.
- Jackets, bags, backpacks and umbrellas cannot be taken into the collections and must be left at the free cloakroom or in lockers, adding an extra stop before entry. Do not assume an admission ticket removes this security and storage step.
- Children and young people under 19 enter free and do not need an online ticket; admission is recorded at the entrance when they show a valid student ID, so buying a paid ticket for them can be unnecessary.
- Visitors with reduced mobility and visitors with baby carriages should use the barrier-free side entrance at Burgring 5, where visitor service provides access to the elevator; wheelchair users can buy their ticket at the vestibule shop.
Frequently asked questions
The things people ask most.
Can I use a mobile ticket, and do I need to choose a time slot?
The “Vienna Kunsthistorisches Museum Day Admission Ticket” is presented as a day-admission product, but its title does not confirm timed entry. Check the voucher instructions at checkout for mobile-ticket acceptance and any arrival window.
Can I cancel the ticket or get a refund?
Cancellation and refund terms are not stated in the product details shown here, so check the final checkout conditions before paying. Do not assume that a day-admission ticket or the “Combo Ticket: Kunsthistorisches Museum & Imperial Treasury” is refundable.
Should I buy from the official site or through a partner?
The available partner options are sold by GetYourGuide: “Vienna Kunsthistorisches Museum Day Admission Ticket” costs 22 EUR, while “Combo Ticket: Kunsthistorisches Museum & Imperial Treasury” costs 32 EUR. Choose the combo only if you also want the Imperial Treasury; otherwise, the standard entry ticket is the simpler choice.
What should I do with bags, backpacks, or umbrellas?
Outerwear, umbrellas, bags, and backpacks can be left at the cloakroom free of charge, and lockers are also available. This adds a cloakroom stop before entering the galleries.
What happens if I arrive late?
A late-arrival policy is not stated for these products. If your voucher shows a fixed entry window, contact GetYourGuide before travelling; a day-admission title alone does not guarantee admission after a missed time requirement.
Do children or other free or reduced visitors need a ticket?
Children and teenagers under 19 have free admission at Kunsthistorisches Museum, while reduced admission applies to visitors with disabilities and their accompanying person. The available paid product details do not confirm whether free visitors need a separate reservation, so verify that requirement before visiting.
Is there a separate entrance for wheelchair users or visitors with baby carriages?
Yes. Barrier-free access for visitors with reduced mobility and visitors with baby carriages is via the side entrance at Burgring 5, where visitor service can accompany you to the elevator and into Kunsthistorisches Museum. During heavy visitor numbers, the museum may restrict the number of baby carriages allowed in exhibition rooms.
