Austria’s Emperors have been Europe’s most powerful rulers for 400 years and during their reign they amassed one of the world’s finest art collections, now on display at Vienna’s KHM Art History Museum (Kunsthistorisches Museum).
Loose yourself in the impressive paintings gallery where the Brueghels in one room alone are worth over a billion dollars. Admire the works of Tizian, Rembrandt, Durer and Caravaggio, or browse the Egyptian Collection and the baffling collection of centuries old goldsmith’s pieces. The Saliera – a golden table sculpture by Cellini – is one of the most valuable sculptures in the world, so precious it was stolen in 2003 in a dramatic coup but was recovered 3 years later!
