Comments

Accessibility restricted.

The Hermesvilla is located in the middle of the Lainzer Tiergarten, which is a nature reserve (Biosphärenpark Wienerwald).

For this reason, it is not possible to enter the grounds or drive to the Hermesvilla with a car. Cycling is also not permitted in the Lainzer Tiergarten.

Visitors can enter the Hermesvilla without using steps with the help of a platform elevator at the side entrance. The ground floor has no steps and is wheelchair accessible. A borrowed wheelchair is available for visitors with limited mobility and there is also adequate seating. Access to the exhibition areas on the first floor is not possible as there is no elevator.
