Museumsquartier

Spread over 90,000 sqm in central Vienna and encompassing 60 cultural institutions, the MuseumsQuartier Wien is one of the largest districts for contemporary art and culture in the world. Contributing to its unique nature is the historic architecture that meets contemporary design. This is where high culture meets subculture. Some of the most exciting museums, galleries, theatres and other cultural institutions can be found here. Whatever your interests might be, you are guaranteed to find something for your taste at the MQ MuseumsQuartier. The spectrum ranges from fine art, architecture, music, fashion, theater, dance, literature, game culture, and street art to design and photography. Most importantly, there´s an incredible number of sights for families and among the highlights for children, is the ZOOM Children´s Museum where kids ages eight months to 14 years can explore different areas of science, life, history, and art. They can get creative at the Atelier or play in the ZOOM Ocean, which was designed specifically for toddlers. Another highlight is the WienXtra Kinderinfo, a small but cool indoor play area for children and an informational point for parents. Here, you can get plenty of tips and insightful advice regarding courses, activities, museums and things to do in Vienna with children up to 13 years. For those interested in arts, the mumok (Museum Moderner Kunst Stiftung Ludwig Wien) and the Leopold Museum are the places to go. Both offer a wide range of educational activities for kids and youth. The Dschungel Theater is a top destination for all theatre-loving families, catering to all age groups from toddlers to teenagers. There´s also the Dschungel Café, which is one of the most popular family cafes in Vienna. Other great, kid-friendly options for eating out in the MuseumsQuartier include the Glacis Beisl, Corbaci, and the MQ Kantine. There are no admission times or fees, as the MuseumsQuartier is open around the clock and entry is free. An insider tip: Want to learn more about the secrets of the MQ MuseumsQuartier? Why are there no proper windows on the Kunsthalle Wien? What´s the relationship between the apparently contrasting buildings of the mumok and the Leopold Museum? Why is the Leopold Museum´s building surface made of limestone? What was the original purpose of the historical buildings at the MQ? To learn these and more fun facts, we recommend you book a guided tour of the MuseumsQuartier.
