Full description

Built to house the Habsburgs’ collections, the Kunsthistorisches Museum is as impressive for its architecture as for its art. The picture gallery includes the world’s largest group of paintings by Pieter Bruegel the Elder, along with Raphael, Titian, Rubens and Vermeer.

Other wings hold Egyptian and Near Eastern antiquities, Greek and Roman art and the Kunstkammer of curiosities. Look up on the grand staircase for paintings by the young Gustav Klimt.
