I love going to museums and was really looking forward to the Dom Museum Vienna. Right next to St. Stephen’s Cathedral is Austria’s most important museum for historical sacred art and I was really excited to see everything.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Since 1973, the Dom Museum Vienna has been located in the rooms of the former apartment of the cathedral provost in the Zwettlerhof on Stephansplatz. This was associated with a reorganization of the content, which now no longer presents exhibits in chronological order.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
From the entrance hall, a spiral staircase leads to the first floor of the building and you stand directly in the exhibition rooms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
First I enter the special exhibition at the Dom Museum Vienna. “Show me your wound” is a theme that is still very topical today. I can expect pictures, sculptures, video installations by different artists. Wounds are depicted in very different ways in the background of the Christian pictorial tradition. I discover very old works, but also interesting new interpretations of the theme.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
