What a ticket covers

Kunst Haus Wien is the only museum designed by Friedensreich Hundertwasser, according to the Vienna Tourist Board's June 2026 press note. The museum's tourism page says two floors hold the world's largest Hundertwasser collection: paintings, prints, tapestries, applied art, architectural models and documents of his ecological work. Twice a year, in spring and autumn, the museum also opens temporary exhibitions on art and ecology and on contemporary photography.

The admission page lists one set of prices with no separate ticket for the collection or the exhibitions:

Visitor Price
Adult €15
Senior, 65+ €12
Student under 26 €6
Child or teenager under 19 €6
Child under 10 Free
Annual ticket €29

For two adults with a 12-year-old and an 8-year-old, admission comes to €36 (2 × €15 + €6, with the younger child free). Two visits in a year cost €30 for an adult, so the €29 annual ticket pays for itself on the second visit.

Which price is right?

The Vienna Tourist Board's museum page gives a standard price of €16, while the museum's own admission page says €15. The museum's tourism page notes "new admission prices from 2024" without listing them. Budget €16 to be safe, and check the price at the desk or on the museum's admission page before you pay.

Discounts

The tourist board and the museum's visiting information page both give Vienna City Card holders 30% off. At €15 that is €10.50; at €16 it is €11.20. If you already hold the card for transport, use it here. Neither page mentions other passes.

Opening hours

The museum opens daily from 10:00 to 18:00. The tourist board adds that these hours apply on public holidays too, and the press note describes the museum as open 365 days a year. No official page we read gives special hours for 24 or 31 December. If you plan a visit on those days, ask the museum before you travel; for the city's markets and holiday hours, see our Vienna Christmas markets guide.

None of the pages gives a last-entry time or a suggested visit length. As a rough rule of our own, arriving by about 16:30 leaves time for the two collection floors and a temporary exhibition before the 18:00 closing.

Vienna, Austria

Getting there

The museum is at Untere Weißgerberstrasse 13 in the 3rd district (Landstrasse). The directions page lists:

Route Stop Walk
Tram 1 or O Radetzkyplatz About 2 minutes
U3 or U4 Landstraße About 10 minutes
U1 or U2 Praterstern About 10 minutes
U3 Rochusgasse About 12 minutes
U4 (or U1) Schwedenplatz About 12 minutes

The tram stop is the closest to the door. For fares and day tickets, see our Vienna public transport tickets guide. Praterstern is also the stop for the Prater, so the museum pairs well with a ride on the Wiener Riesenrad on the same day.

Drivers can use the Sofiensäle (Blattgasse 14) or Justizzentrum (Marxergasse 1a) garages, both open all year, according to the directions page; the surrounding streets are a short-stay zone with charges at fixed times on weekdays.

The Hundertwasserhaus nearby

The Hundertwasser-designed apartment block, the Hundertwasserhaus, is in the same neighbourhood; the museum's visiting information places a coach drop-off near it on Weißgerberlände and Kegelgasse. The official pages we read do not say whether the building can be visited inside, so plan to see it from the street.

Accessibility

If you have only an hour

The pages give no visit length, so plan around the collection. As our own suggestion: with an hour, see the Hundertwasser floors and skip the temporary exhibition. With a free afternoon, add the exhibition and a walk past the Hundertwasserhaus. For other Vienna art museums, see our guides to the Belvedere and the Leopold Museum.
