The Weltmuseum Wien possesses internationally unique cultural treasures from all five continents. It is the most important Museum in the country dedicated to non-European culture, and it reflects Austria’s relationship with the world. For doing the costly renovations and conservation measures for the precious objects, as well as conducting research in connection with the new exhibits and other culturally diverse events, we require your additional help. There will also be a significant effort to position the Museum in the public eye along with an extensive education and outreach programme for children and adolescents.
