Kunst Haus Wien museum | A fusion of art, nature & visionary architecture

Dive into the imaginative world of Vienna-born artist Friedensreich Hundertwasser at Kunst Haus Wien museum, one of the city’s most iconic cultural landmarks. Also known as “Museum Hundertwasser”, the museum, with its whimsical facade, eco-conscious design, and vibrant exhibitions, offers an unparalleled experience that blends art, nature, and architecture – all from the imagination of one of the most prominent European artists of the 20th century.

Why visit Kunst Haus Wien museum

  • Hundertwasser’s visionary art: The museum is home to the world’s only permanent exhibition of Austrian artist Friedensreich Hundertwasser’s work, which features bold colours, vibrant spiral motifs, and ecological messages.
  • Architectural marvel: The building itself is a masterpiece—no straight lines, vibrant mosaics, lush greenery cascading from the walls, and a checkerboard facade create an immersive, otherworldly atmosphere.
  • Green museum: With its eco-cultural concept, Kunst Haus Wien is Austria's first “green museum,” committed to sustainability and environmental consciousness. This includes the use of a renewable hydrothermal energy source, waste reduction strategies, and the incorporation of vegetation and green spaces in the interiors.
  • Thought-provoking exhibitions: Encapsulating Hundertwasser’s forward-thinking ideas on environmental issues, the museum regularly features curated exhibitions and art installations on ecological topics such as sustainability, climate change, and recycling.

Highlights of the Kunst Haus Wien museum

Hundertwasser permanent exhibition

Enter the eccentric world of Austrian artist Friedensreich Hundertwasser. The museum’s permanent collection features his visionary artworks, including paintings, graphic art, lithographs, silkscreens, etchings, woodcuts, tapestries, and eco-architectural models and blueprints that challenge conventional norms.

Vibrant interiors

Step inside one of Vienna’s most unconventional buildings—designed entirely by Hundertwasser himself, who believed straight lines were unnatural. Curving walls, undulating wood-and-tile floors, irregular windows, asymmetrical rooms, and plant-covered facades turn this museum into a piece of art you can walk through.

Tree tenants

Hundertwasser believed that humans are inseparable from nature and the environment. To this end, he designed the museum building with trees growing from the windows, green roofs, and vertical gardens. This arrangement is meant to help these “tree tenants” grow and become an integral part of the building.

Museum cafe

Relax in Café Friedlich, the museum’s cafe that is designed in the typical Hundertwasser style. Its abundance of plants, colorfully tiled flooring, and mismatched chairs give it the look of a redolent garden courtyard. It’s the perfect spot to linger over a cup of Viennese coffee as you take in the views of the city from its windows.
