Do I need to print my ticket or is a mobile ticket accepted?

A mobile ticket on your phone is accepted — there is no need to print anything.

Where exactly do I go when I arrive?

The museum is on Maria-Theresien-Platz, directly opposite the Naturhistorisches Museum. Present your ticket at the skip-the-line entrance rather than joining the standard admissions queue.

My child is under 19 — do I still need to book a ticket for them?

Children and young people under 19 enter free of charge. You do not need to purchase a ticket for them, but you may need to show proof of age at the door.

Can I cancel my booking if my plans change?

Cancellation terms depend on the ticket option selected. Check the specific conditions shown at checkout before completing your booking.

What are the museum's opening hours?

Opening hours and closure dates can vary.

What is the difference between the ticket options?

There are four options: standard skip-the-line admission, a discounted student rate, a combination ticket with the Imperial Treasury, and a combination ticket with the Leopold Museum. Choose the one that best matches your itinerary and eligibility.
