Welcome to Dom Museum Wien!
The museum is located in the heart of Vienna adjacent to St. Stephen’s Cathedral and houses some of the most valuable sacred and historic artefacts in the world.
The unique objects contained in this Cathedral treasury date back to the Middle Ages, to the period of Rudolf IV, Duke of Austria (1339–1365), the founder of St. Stephen’s Cathedral, who established Vienna as the center of the Hapsburg Empire. The painting of his likeness, largely considered the oldest portrait of the western world, as well as his gold-threaded burial shroud rank among the highlights of the collection. Ranging from the Gothic period to Art Deco, sculptures, precious altars, sacred objects adorned with gold and jewels, portraits, liturgical manuscripts and books, as well as magnificent vestments round out the collection.
Dom Museum Wien also houses the legendary Otto Mauer Collection, a large collection of modern and contemporary artworks: its holdings include works by Expressionists and Secessionists as well as by key figures of the Austrian and international avant-garde. The Collection is continuously expanded to include works by contemporary artists.
