The special presentation Vitrine EXTRA periodically showcases various antique objects as temporary additions to the permanent exhibition of the Collection of Greek and Roman Antiquitiesarrow_outward at the Kunsthistorisches Museum Vienna. In its seventh edition, the show focuses on short messages from antiquity.
When we think of antique inscriptions, we usually expect large stone tablets with chiselled lettering. But there are many other things which at first glance are perhaps inconspicuous or invisible; and sometimes, you might even have to turn an object upside down to see them: Greek vases for example, tell a host of exciting stories using delicate sgraffito techniques and vibrant paintwork.

The Kunsthistorisches Museum in Vienna is absolutely stunning! both for its incredible art collection and the building itself. I went in the evening around 7 PM, and it was a great decision. There were fewer people, which made the whole experience more relaxed and enjoyable.I headed straight up to the 3rd floor and was able to look down at the beautiful caf&eacute; in the center of the museum &mdash; it&rsquo;s such a breathtaking view, like something out of a movie. The architecture alone is worth the visit, but the artworks by Bruegel, Rubens, and Caravaggio make it unforgettable. Plus i enjoyed all the paintings!!!!Highly recommended, especially if you want a quieter, more atmospheric visit.

I bought the ticket on Ctrip and scanned the QR code to enter, which was quite convenient. Children are free, which is good. Adult tickets are 18 euros on site, and it is cheaper to buy tickets on Ctrip. It is a very small museum and it took 45 minutes to visit it.
