Enter & Win
Win tickets to the Kunsthistorisches Museum
Magnificent suits of armor, precious weapons, and instruments that have shaped the history of music: Two extraordinary collections await visitors at the Neue Hofburg. With the “Krone,” you can explore the Imperial Hunting and Armory or the collection of historical musical instruments.
Shining suits of armor, magnificent weapons, and impressive tournament gear: The Imperial Hunting and Armory in the Neue Hofburg brings the world of European rulers and knights back to life. The collection features extraordinary pieces spanning more than a thousand years of history, with a focus on the 15th through 18th centuries. Highlights include, among others, the late-Gothic equestrian armor of Emperor Maximilian I, as well as intricately crafted suits of armor and ceremonial weapons belonging to prominent figures from across Europe. Many of the pieces were far more than mere protective gear: they served as symbols of prestige at tournaments, weddings, and other grand events at European courts.
A Treasure Trove of Music History
Just a few steps away, a completely different journey through time awaits. The collection of historical musical instruments spans several centuries of European music history—from the Renaissance through the Baroque and Viennese Classical periods to the Romantic era and beyond. On display are unique historical instruments as well as pieces associated with famous names in music history. Among them are pianos once played by greats such as Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, Clara Schumann, Johannes Brahms, and Franz Liszt.
