A very interesting museum in Vienna! I appreciated this so much esp as a professional working with children. Been reading about Freud for years and it’s amazing to see his actual place and belongings. There are a lot of interactive areas too. Bought a coaster from the shop.

Very interesting to learn about Freud. But you should be patient to read texts about him and his work rather than seeing exposed materials which are limited. Anyways I think visiting this museum is something to do for general culture. Please don't bring your kids since it might be boaring for them
