Reviews of Leopold Museum
Luca
One of the best museums I've ever visited, with works by Klimt and Schiele, as well as some of the best Austrian artists of the 20th century. No waiting, and excellent cloakroom service.
Nick Shanagher
The Leopold Museum is a wonderful building with an excellently curated selection of artworks that highlights the crreative vitality of artists based in and around Vienna, starting with Klimt. The focus on Schiele, Kokoshka and similar places the artists in a sympathetic context, enabling the visitor to get a sense of who influenced who and what they wanted to say. Brilliant.

Ramdas Panicher
The Leopold Museum is a gem in Vienna’s MuseumsQuartier, showcasing stunning Austrian art. It’s famous for the world’s largest Egon Schiele collection and Gustav Klimt masterpieces. The bright, airy galleries make exploring a joy. You’ll also find unique furniture and decorative pieces from the Vienna Secession. A must-visit for art lovers!
Isaac Liao
Amazing pieces! You could see the different style each artist had and also how their piece shows who they are. There are a few stories of exhibitions! I loved the -2 floor! The watercolour Based pieces were remarkable! Truly breathtaking! Recommend to buy the tickets in advance. I was lucky to have went early where there was no crowd. When I came out there was a queue for the ticket.
