Overview

The Imperial Carriage Museum, known as the Kaiserliche Wagenburg Wien, is located near Schönbrunn Palace in Vienna. Visitors receive a skip-the-line ticket for direct entry to the museum, which houses a unique collection of coaches and carriages used by Austrian emperors and empresses. The visit lasts approximately 45 minutes and includes viewing the baroque Imperial Coach, state carriages, traveling coaches, and children’s carriages that belonged to Habsburg princes and princesses. The museum features the Sisi Trail, which presents the life of Empress Elisabeth through a series of carriages and original personal items. Highlights include the coach she rode as an imperial bride, the golden Imperial Coach used at her coronation as Queen of Hungary, the carriage she used shortly before her assassination in Geneva, and the black hearse that carried her to her final resting place. Alongside the carriages are portraits, paintings, and personal objects such as her black robe with a long train designed by Fanny Scheiner around 1885, the only surviving saddle she used, and a reconstructed riding chapel displaying portraits of her favorite horses. The ticket covers entrance only; no guide or transfers are included, but visitors may bring a private guide if they wish.
