Liechtenstein Museum
Being there
A private collection of the Prince of Liechtenstein is exhibited in his former Viennese residences, which include the Stadtpalais (City Palace) and Gartenpalais (Garden Palace). The richly decorated picture gallery mainly exhibits Baroque paintings, with a nice portion of Rubens. Guided tours on selected Fridays in German only, registration required.
The story
The Gartenpalais Liechtenstein (eng.: Liechtenstein Garden Palace) is a baroque palace on Fürstengasse in Vienna's 9th district, Alsergrund. The palace is owned by the Princely Family of Liechtenstein, rulers of Liechtenstein. It sits on the southern end of the Liechtensteinpark.
Until 2011, the palace was home to the Liechtenstein Museum. The building was renamed "Gartenpalais Liechtenstein" to distinguish it from the Stadtpalais Liechtenstein in the Innere Stadt.
