Full description

The Funeral Museum Vienna, founded in 1967, is located at the Vienna Central Cemetery and explores the Austrian history of burial. A reviewer found it quite interesting but hard to find when walking from the first tram stop.

It is closed on Mondays and Saturdays. A visit takes about three quarters of an hour and suits curious travellers and lovers of unusual places.

Reviews

Smaller museum, but worth the visit. It's located in the central cemetery, and if you're interested in macabre, I think this compact walk through history of funerals in Vienna will be enjoyable. Short but interesting.
