The Technical Museum Vienna celebrates 2009 with a special anniversary. 100 Years ago, on June 20, 1909, Emperor Franz Josef laid the foundations of the museum building in the Mariahilfer Straße next to Schloss Schönbrunn. On an area of 22,000 square meters, the Technisches Museum Wien offers a wide range of fascinating insights into the world of technology. Unique exhibits from the past to the present make the house a venue for exploring exciting technological developments. Texts, films, and experiments illustrate the mutual influence between technological achievements and society, economy and culture. Granting each visitor an individual approach, multimedia presentations make every tour through the museum a personal experience. Besides the exhibitions in the museum itself, the Österreichische Mediathek and the Railway Museum Strasshof convey an even more comprehensive notion of specific fields.
