Gustav Klimt was born and died in the Austrian capital, so it's no wonder you can walk around Vienna for days trying to see everything: his "Kiss" at the Belvedere Palace, his "Beethoven Frieze" at the Secession Exhibition Hall, his "Life and Death" at the Leopold Museum. During this art tour, you will visit the three museums that house the most important part of Klimt's legacy and get a comprehensive overview of his work. Belvedere The tour stats at the historic Belvedere Palace. It is here that "The Kiss" and "Judith", the famous works of Klimt's most striking "golden period", are to be found. Here you will not only see the most famous works firsthand, but also understand the historical context and the origins of the great artist's work. Secession In the exhibition hall of the Secession, you will come face to face with his monumental work "Beethoven's Frieze". It is the only piece that surrounds the viewer on all sides - which was part of the artist's conception. Here you will merge with the art and experience Gustav Klimt in its most pure form. Leopold Museum The third stop is in the Museum Quarter. Here, the Leopold Museum houses "Life and Death". It is an exceptional painting, and in reworking it, the artist committed an important symbolic act. You will take an in-depth look at this key work, as well as the reconstructions of the lost faculty paintings and Klimt's studio. After the tour you can stay in the Leopold Museum as long as you like.

During the late 19th century Vienna experienced a rapid population expansion, and a modern system of public transportation became essential. The city’s leaders engaged urban planners to draw up metro lines to connect the suburbs with the city center along the Ringstrasse. The architect chosen for this assignment was Otto Wagner. From the beginning, his aim was to create a metro design that would be iconographic, easy to recognize, and highlight Vienna’s cosmopolitanism. It was not surprising that he chose to work in the international avant¬-garde Art Nouveau style. On this 3-hour guided tour you’ll visit 2 of the remaining stations, where you’ll begin a discussion about Viennese Art Nouveau and its ideological underpinnings. Starting out at the beautiful pavilion at Karlsplatz, you’ll visit the small Wagner Museum and then walk to the Stadtpark station, which is the best-preserved of the original metro stations still in use. Your next metro stop is Kettenbrücke station. Along the way you’ll visit the famous Sezession House, the icon par excellence of Viennese Jugendstil. You’ll also see 2 beautiful apartment houses designed by Otto Wagner. Learn more about the philosophy behind Art Nouveau and consider the symbols and materials favored by its practitioners. From Kettenbrücke station, step onto the metro for your last stop, which is a visit to the imperial station. This outstanding building was erected outside Schönbrunn solely for the emperor to use. The crown jewel of the line, this station had a symbolic meaning as well, namely to show critics of Vienna’s metro that the emperor supported the line. Note the methods used by Wagner to translate the generally bourgeois style of Art Nouveau into an aesthetic with imperial grandiosity.
