150 Years Vienna World’s Fair

In 2023 Vienna celebrates the 150th anniversary of the Vienna World’s Fair in 1873. The Weltmuseum Wien will join the festivities and focus on the topic a whole year long: from January to December 2023, the museum will offer a guided tour (alternating between German and English) entitled The Vienna World’s Fair 1873 and Art Nouveau every Saturday at 11 am. Moreover, visitors will receive a free booklet (German/English) with information on the Vienna World’s Fair 1873 as well as on objects in the collections of Weltmuseum Wien and Kunsthistorisches Museum either displayed at or entered into the collections after the World’s Fair.
