5 Art Museums in Neubau That You Shouldn't Miss
In Vienna, the coffee house isn’t just a hangout: it’s an institution. Lingering over a newspaper with a pastry and a strong espresso drink is, according to UNESCO, officially a Viennese cultural pastime. Walk off your slice of Sachertorte with a self-guided tour of the city’s stunning traditional, Secessionist, and modern architecture, such as the Imperial Palace, the State Opera House, the Kirche am Steinhof, or the Kunsthistorisches Museum, an exercise in ornate geometry.

1. WestLicht. Museum for Photography
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 36 reviews
Colourful, varied, extraordinary – the posters for the former exhibitions in the entrance area already reveal the versatility of the WestLicht Museum, which has been an integral part of an up-and-coming cultural scene since 2001. Surrounded by camera shops, WestLicht quickly developed from an insider tip to the heart of this creative area and offers photo-savvy visitors several times a year changing photo exhibitions, permanent collection of historical cameras, a large selection of photo books and posters in bookshop, as well as a cozy café that invites you to relax in an inspiring atmosphere. One of the highlights of the camera collection is the world's first commercially manufactured camera.

2. Leopold Museum

4.5 based on 2,730 reviews
The Leopold Museum is a unique treasure-house of Viennese Jugendstil, the Wiener Werkstätte and Expressionism. It is the most-visited museum of the city's hottest cultural site, the MuseumsQuartier, and it houses the most significant and largest Egon Schiele collection in the world, as well as masterworks by Secession founder Gustav Klimt. Tip: The museum's panorama windows offer a wonderful view of central Vienna with Maria Theresa Square and the Hofburg Palace.

Despite the very many great museums in Vienna, the Leopoldo Museum remains my favorite. It hosts a very large section on the exceedingly talented Egon Schiele and another on the World Famous Gustav Klimt. They also do an excellent job explaining how the Secession Movement came about in Austria and the contributions by its various founding members. The Leopold also hosts excellent visiting exhibitions. This time round there was one in German Expressionism and another on Schiele was to open tomorrow. I will need to go back again tomorrow. PS the Leopold Cafe on the 2nd floor is excellent for a bite n a drink.

Kunsthalle Wien is Vienna’s exhibition space for international contemporary art and discourse.At its two venues at Museumsquartier and Karlsplatz, contemporary art is not only shown, but also presented in its specific contexts.Thematic group exhibitions, solo exhibitions by international artists, retrospectives by well-known representatives of contemporary art as well as exhibitions by emerging artists add an outstanding profile to Kunsthalle Wien that highlights its relation with both the international and the local art scene.With its broad program Kunsthalle Wien emphasizes that the subjects taken up by contemporary art are manifold. The combination of artistic practice and its theoretical reflection are therefore most important for its many exhibition activities. The intense debate on important questions of our time is also reflected in an extensive program of events such as talks and discussions.

I see mixed reviews but my experience was really pleasant. I knew what to expect and I got it. I loved the architecture of the building and the vertigo exhibition has really been interesting with a couple of real modern art masterpieces. I had no problems with the staff, I understand them, it's their job to watch closely and protect the art. Anyway if you like modern art don't hesitate
