"The Albertina is one of Vienna’s most important art museums, housed in a former Habsburg palace. It boasts an extensive collection of over a million prints, drawings, and paintings, including works by masters such as Dürer, Picasso, and Monet. The museum also features temporary exhibitions that cover a wide range of artistic periods and styles.
Don't miss the Albertina's permanent collection, "The Batliner Collection," which showcases works from Impressionism to Modernism. Take a moment to explore the elegant state rooms, which offer a glimpse into the luxurious life of the Habsburgs.
The Albertina is named after Duke Albert of Saxe-Teschen, the son-in-law of Empress Maria Theresa, who founded the museum's original collection. The museum is also home to one of the most famous prints in the world, Albrecht Dürer’s Young Hare, which is considered a masterpiece of realism."
