I used Headout to book museum tickets during my trip to Vienna, and the experience was absolutely flawless! The website is incredibly user-friendly and fast, allowing me to skip the long queues and save precious time to enjoy the city's stunning art and history. The vouchers arrived instantly via email and were accepted at the entrance without any issues. It is undoubtedly the easiest and most reliable way to organize cultural visits. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a professional, clear, and super-efficient service. I will definitely be using it again for my next adventure!

The two belvederes are magnificent. Very fine exhibition of paintings and sculptures. One small regret is that there are only a few well-preserved rooms. But those that are are beautiful. Allow a good 2 hours in total. We were in winter, so the park is a bit dull, but in spring and summer it must be magnificent. On the other hand, the organization from fast to high was really impractical: first we received the ticket for the second entrance, and only then the ticket for the first entrance. Fortunately, the guard was nice.

Wonderful experience at the Upper Belvedere: well-kept museum, not too crowded and really enjoyable visit. The rooms devoted to Klimt (especially The Kiss) are exciting, and I also really enjoyed Monet and the portrait of Napoleon. After the visit it was nice to walk in the gardens, which are very scenic. The Lower Belvedere, on the other hand, I would have avoided in hindsight: it did not excite me and I found it less interesting than the upper part.

I completely fell in love with Upper Belvedere Palace before even stepping inside. The exterior architecture and the perfectly designed gardens are breathtaking. I spent nearly 45 minutes just walking around outside, taking it all in. The palace feels grand yet elegant, and the gardens offer a calm, almost cinematic view of Vienna. I originally came to see The Kiss by Klimt, but I left genuinely amazed by the richness and beauty of everything else I discovered. The collection as a whole is stunning, and I was especially struck by the medieval (Moyen Âge) section of the museum, which felt powerful, emotional, and unexpectedly captivating. The entrance process was very easy and quick, with no stress or confusion, which made the visit even more enjoyable. Overall, the experience was incredibly smooth and well organized. What started as a visit for one iconic painting turned into one of the most memorable and impressive museum experiences I had in Vienna

A UNESCO World Heritage Site, the Belvedere Palace is also the site of the Austrian State Treaty. Consisting of two palaces, the Upper and Lower Belvedere, and extensive gardens the unique complex is one of the world's most supreme specimens of a Baroque architectural ensemble.

The Upper Belvedere

For an artistic retreat, the Upper Belvedere is the perfect getaway! The Upper Belvedere is one of the most prominent museums across the globe, with famous art collections dating back to the Middle Ages. Highlights include the world's largest collection of Gustav Klimt paintings (including The Kiss and Judith), famous works from the periods of Austrian Baroque, French Impressionism, Viennese Biedermeier, and from Vienna around 1900. You can also admire works by Austrian artists like Rueland Frueauf the Elder, Elena Luksch-Makowsky, and Helene Funke, apart from international artists like Vincent van Gogh, Claude Monet, and Auguste Rodin.

The Lower Belvedere

Calling all history lovers, the Lower Belvedere is a treasure trove that will take you back in time! Located in Vienna, the majestic Lower Belvedere Palace is a magnificent 18th-century structure that now serves as an exhibition center. Focusing on Austrian artists within an international context and showcasing pivotal works of Western art history, this UNESCO World Heritage Site was originally built for the diplomat and collector Prince Eugene of Savoy to admire his exceptional Baroque architecture collection. Opt for the direct entry ticket to either Upper or Lower Belvedere Palace, to save time and choose what you'd like to see.
