What To Expect

Maria Theresien Square

Maria Theresa entered the history of the Austrian Empire as a great reformer and mother of 16 children. I will tell you about the life of this amazing woman and the role she played for Austria. The Historical Museum and the Natural History Museum are two of Vienna's most iconic museums. Both were built during the reign of Maria Theresia, and their collections were mainly assembled by her husband, Francis Stephan. The Kunsthistorisches Museum houses one of the world's finest art collections with masterpieces by artists such as Titian and Rembrandt. The Museum of Natural History has an extensive collection of scientific specimens, including an extensive collection of minerals and fossils. These two museums are a testament to Maria Theresa's support of art and science, and today they continue to delight visitors from around the world.
