Guided tour: Our City – on summer retreat

Enjoy the summer at the museum! As part of a tour in the permanent exhibition “Our City! Jewish Vienna – Then to Now” and in the temporary exhibition “The Ephrussis. Travel in Time,” you can experience, for instance, where Hilde Spiel used to swim in Vienna, how Theodor Herzl learned to ride a bicycle and where the famous Jewish families on the Ringstrasse stayed in the summer when they left their elegant mansions to beat the heat. This summer retreat tour includes objects related to Zionism in Vienna and the world, as well as souvenirs that could be purchased in the Holy Land in the 1920s.

Participation in the tour is free for visitors with a valid exhibition ticket or annual ticket.

Advance booking requested by Friday before the tour at the latest: Tel.: +43 1 535 04 31-1537 and -1564 or e-mail: tours@jmw.at.
