Step into Dorotheum, the Vienna auction house dating back to 1707. Wander the galleries of porcelain, silver, furniture and paintings, and perhaps catch a live auction in progress.

📖

Full description

Dorotheum is a historic auction house in Vienna's Innere Stadt, founded in 1707 and widely counted among the oldest in the world. Its galleries hold porcelain, glass, silver, furniture, antiques, paintings and jewellery, much of it on view free of charge ahead of sales.

Reviewers note that many lots can be bought immediately without bidding, and that visiting during a live auction lets you watch the process first-hand. It works as a museum-like stroll through objects with price tags, usually taking about an hour.

Reviews

If you are in Vienna and you don't want to waste money for museum, than you can visit this wonderful house of art. If you came here on the right time, than you can feely partcipate to some real auction. An event that you can't see so often.
