Geymüllerschlössel Vienna: Historic Biedermeier Interiors, Art Exhibitions & James Turrell's Skyspace

The Geymüllerschlössel, a historic villa in Vienna's Pötzleinsdorf district, showcases authentic Biedermeier interiors and a unique collection of historical clocks. It also serves as a venue for contemporary art, featuring national and international artists, as well as James Turrell's permanent installation 'Skyspace The Other Horizon'.

The Geymüllerschlössel, located in Vienna's 18th district, is a rare example of an original Biedermeier-era interior, offering visitors a glimpse into the period with its preserved furnishings and a unique collection of historical clocks. Originally built in 1808, the building embodies the eclectic architectural styles of the early 19th century, incorporating Gothic, Indian, and Arabic elements. As a branch of the MAK - Museum of Applied Arts, the Schlössel presents a fascinating juxtaposition of historical and contemporary art. In addition to its well-preserved interiors and horological collection, the park surrounding the villa features James Turrell's permanent installation, 'Skyspace The Other Horizon'. This artwork interacts with natural light conditions, offering a particularly striking experience in the 90 minutes before sunset. The site is accessible via tram line 41 and is open on Saturdays and Sundays from early May to early December.

General admission is €9.50, with an online price of €8.50, and a discounted price of €7.50 for Vienna City Card holders. Visitors under 19 receive free entry. The Schlössel is open Saturdays and Sundays from early May to early December.
