Jewish Vienna: Museums, Judenplatz and Walking Tours

1.Jewish Museum Vienna and Museum Judenplatz Tickets

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 170 reviews · 3 days · from $17Our pick

Jewish Museum Vienna tickets cover both sites for 3 days, with exhibitions on Jewish life, history, and the medieval synagogue at Judenplatz.

“My wife and I found both museums informative, well organized, and well illustrated. Neither one is crowded. Both of them can be visited in the space of a morning. They give an alternative viewpoint to Vienna's history that helps to give a fuller perspective on life, especially during the Second World War. I found both museums to be frank in their description of suffering, but not morbid in approach. They share the work of the Jews in the community to build and maintain a life in the face of constant challenge and discrimination. The museums are appropriate for children, teens, and adults.”

“Lisa Maria is a wonderful, kind and enthusiastic person with an enormous knowledge about the Jewish Population in Vienna over the last few centuries. She definitely found her passion in history and she was able to answer any questions she was asked by our group. She is a real story teller and all of us were so keen on listening that we finished the tour much later than expected. Her tour was by far our highlight of our 5-day-Vienna-Trip. Thank you Lisa Maria!”

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 8 reviews · 3 hours (approx.) · from $564

A private 3-hour Jewish Vienna walk with an expert historian guide, seeing key synagogues, memorials, and cultural sites with pickup options.

“We did not think the tour guide had either a deep feeling or knowledge ior Jewish culture in Vienna—the topic of our tour. We learned much more by ourselves in an hour on the fourth floor of the Leopold museum. The guide was well meaning and earnest (and amiable) but we didn’t think he was qualified to give that particular tour.”
