Museum of Art Fakes
Museum of Art Fakes (Fälschermuseum) is a one-of-a-kind museum that exhibits only fake art and forgeries. Their collection includes the works of Han van Meegeren, who is famous for copying the style of the Dutch Golden Age painter Johannes Vermeer and trying to sell them as his. Aside from seeing some of the best fakes and forgeries, you will also have the opportunity to learn all sorts of interesting stories tied to them.
The Third Man Tour
The Third Man Tour will take you to Vienna’s sewer system, which was prominently featured in the 1949 Academy Award-winning movie Third Man. Even if you are not a fan of the movie, it is still a great experience as you’ll get to be one of the rare people to see the city’s undergrounds and find out all sorts of anecdotes.
The Butterfly House
The Butterfly House (Das Schmetterlinghaus) has to be one of the most relaxing and eye-pleasing attractions in Vienna. It offers a feeling of stepping into another dimension, with hundreds of butterflies freely flying around and dazzling the visitors with their colorful wings.
