Visit the Secession, the Art Nouveau landmark under its golden laurel dome. See contemporary exhibitions upstairs, then descend to Klimt's Beethoven Frieze in the basement.

📖

Full description

The Secession is an exhibition hall in the Innere Stadt, recognisable by its dome of gilded laurel leaves. Upstairs, temporary shows present contemporary artists, while the basement holds Gustav Klimt's Beethoven Frieze, accompanied by Beethoven's music.

Reviewers call it a small museum with a big impact and note that the architecture alone justifies a visit. A short stop of about 45 minutes is typical, and it fits well into a walk through the city centre.

It suits art and architecture lovers.

Reviews

The building with a golden cabbage is amazing. It's in must visit list of all art lovers. The work of Gustav Klimt in the basement is upper than it was possible to imagine, looking the pictures. Accompanied by the music of Beethoven, it creates an unforgettable effect.
