Admire Masterpieces at the Kunsthistorisches Museum Vienna
On a rainy day, one of the best things to do in Vienna is to embrace your artistic side at Kunsthistorisches Museum Vienna. This beautiful gallery, which now houses the city's museum of art history, was first intended to exhibit the enormous collections of the imperial family. It is now regarded as one of the world's most prestigious art galleries and is accessible to the public. Here, you may view numerous well-known pieces that you've undoubtedly previously heard of, including Vermeer's The Art of Painting, Velazquez's Infanta paintings, and Raphael's Madonna in the Meadow. Additionally, there are numerous works by Rembrandt, Rubens, Tintoretto, and Titian. Don't miss the Near Eastern and Egyptian collections because they are filled with glitzy artifacts from centuries ago.
Another highlight of the museum is the Kunstkammer Vienna (Chamber of Art and Wonders), where you’ll find valuable pieces that the Habsburgs once owned. It contains some of the most precious pieces of artwork from the Baroque era, Renaissance, and Middle Ages.
