I loved the building, loved the costumes and then walked around the gardens which being winter, weren’t flowering but saw the Sisi statue erected by her husband. ThankYOU Nicole for bringing this to life”

★★★★★★★★★★4.7 · 968 reviews · 1 day · from $22

Review of Vienna’s Leopold Museum, home to Schiele and Klimt masterpieces, special exhibitions, city views, prices, tips, and practical details.

“I am glad that I had the opportunity to see Egon Schiele's works firsthand at the Leopold Museum. Impressive work, naked talent on canvas, I would say without any pretense or pandering to the audience. Such talents burn out like comets, and that is what happened with Egon Schiele. Both he and his wife were taken away by the greatest pandemic of the 20th century, the Spanish flu. However, his works remain. Thank you for getting us an opportunity to see his legacy.”

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 440 reviews · 2 to 3 hours (approx.) · from $22

Review of the Leopold Museum Vienna ticket, with Schiele, Klimt, Jugendstil, practical tips, value advice, and honest drawbacks.

“We were not able to travel because of the Corona-measures and had to cancel our flight, hotel, taxi, parking and all concert and musea tickets. Unfortunately we did not manage to cancel the booking for the Leopold museum, because of internet-issues on the website. We hope that one day we will be allowed and able to travel again and we are looking forward to that. By all means the Leopold museum (and others) will be on our to-visit list.”
