Skip the hassle and wander through centuries of art, from Renaissance drawings to modern masterpieces, inside Vienna’s Albertina Museum.
Getting started
The Albertina Museum sits right in the heart of Vienna, just behind the State Opera House and a short stroll from Stephansplatz. The main entrance is through the Albertinaplatz; you’ll recognize it instantly by the grand statue of Archduke Albrecht on horseback.
Once inside, you’ll pass through a brief security check before entering the lobby. If you’ve booked an audio guide, simply collect it at the counter near the main ticket desk.
Art in a royal setting
Your visit begins in the opulent Habsburg State Rooms, where crystal chandeliers, silk wall coverings, and gilded mirrors reflect the grandeur of imperial Vienna. These 21 restored rooms, once the residence of Archduke Albert and Princess Maria Christina, let you step right into 18th-century court life.
Dürer’s detail and Da Vinci’s design
Next, you’ll enter one of the most remarkable print rooms in the world, home to the Albertina’s legendary collection of master drawings. Here, Dürer’s Young Hare and Praying Hands sit beside sketches by Michelangelo, Raphael, and Leonardo da Vinci.
Impressionist treasures
As you step into the Batliner Collection galleries, the tone shifts from royal refinement to radiant color. See Monet’s reflections, Cézanne’s bold brushstrokes, and Picasso’s evolving style, all displayed in a sequence that tells the story of European modernism.
Temporary exhibitions
One of the joys of the Albertina is that no two visits are the same. Alongside its permanent collections, the museum hosts rotating exhibitions ranging from photography retrospectives to post-war Austrian art.
Whether it’s Lisette Model’s groundbreaking street photography or a Leiko Ikemura installation, each show adds a fresh perspective to the Albertina’s historic walls.
Views fit for royalty
Before you leave, step out onto the Albertina’s terrace for one of Vienna’s most iconic views. From here, you’ll see the State Opera House, Burggarten, and the rooftops of the old city, a picture-perfect way to end your visit.
