Museum of Natural History

Whether a visit to see the Venus of Willendorf, a tour of the powerful gallery rooms, exciting children's tours, or a rooftop view of Vienna's first district, the Museum of Natural History offers surprises for visitors large and small.

Exhibit in the Museum of Natural History

Sculpture of a naked woman from the early Paleolithic Age

The show room with the dinosaurs is one of the favorites of young researchers of nature.

The Venus of Willendorf also tells her history and bears witness to the beginnings of our culture 25,000 years ago.

And the Gem Hall of the museum literally shines with its giant topaz (117 kilograms) and the jewel bouquet of Maria Theresia.
