Upper Belvedere ticket: Klimt's The Kiss

Klimt's The Kiss, on your own schedule

The Belvedere is two palaces facing each other across a formal garden. This ticket covers the Upper Belvedere, home to the world's largest Klimt collection, The Kiss included. There is no guide, so the pace is yours.

Beyond Klimt, the collection runs from medieval altarpieces to works by Schiele, Caspar David Friedrich and Van Gogh, plus a temporary exhibition and the Marble Hall.

The Lower Belvedere across the garden needs a separate ticket.
