About Us

The Austrian Museum of Folk Life and Folk Art / Volkskundemuseum Wien is one of the world’s largest ethnographic museums and home to extensive collections of folk art as well as to collections that cover historical and contemporary European cultures of everyday life. A permanent display collection as well as special exhibitions address a diverse array of themes pertaining to human coexistence in a constantly changing world.

Exhibition

fruit, seeds

Fri, 19.04.2024 – Fri, 03.05.2024
„fruit, seeds“ is a multimedia group exhibition by which the artists intentionally locate and expose themselves and their works in the between, the “still figuring out” and the (un)becoming - a process which requires constant watering, so as to reap what is sown. _MEHR

Activities


Information

changed museum activities

The general renovation of the Garden Palais Schönborn will begin in autumn 2024. The display collection has been completely dismantled and moved to the depot. However, we will remain active and continue our programme. From January to September 2024, a varied programme will take place under the title before it gets better ...  _MEHR

Educational Work

In our educational work, we emphasise a present-day perspective on the past that is well-reflected, critical, and respectful. It is furthermore important to us, in our exhibitions, to expand upon and question existing narratives – and, together with our visitors, to arrive at new perspectives.

Research

Besides collecting, preserving and exhibiting, research and documentation have always been part of the museum's work. External research collaborations further add to the museum's research activities.
