Vienna in 50 Objects
To mark the reopening of the Wien Museum on Karlsplatz, one of a total of 50 selected objects from the museum’s extensive collection was put in the spotlight on a weekly basis.
These are highlights from the city’s collections, which individually and especially in their diversity represent the history of Vienna. Together with around 2,000 objects, they have been on display in the new permanent exhibition since 2023.
Special thanks to Wiener Städtische Versicherung AG for the patronage of the model of St. Stephen’s.
