As instructed. we arrived 15 minutes early to commence the tour at 11am. Once the tour guide collected the entry tickets, we finally entered the Upper Belvedere Palce to commence the guided tour of the art gallery at 11.45am. The tour guide was very quietly spoken and at times difficult to hear Very dissapointing content Poor value for money

Exceptional! Guided tour to the Upper Belvedere - Vienna We quickly found our guide, Otilia, who turned out to be a knowledgeable, kind and very helpful professional. She took us with great passion through the halls of the museum, making us dwell on some particularly significant works and carefully describing them, even dwelling on details that we probably would have ignored on our own. A truly enjoyable and interesting experience, which I highly recommend to anyone who wants to visit the Belvedere with a knowledgeable and passionate guide.

Poorly set up, poor or inadequate description - the description of one attraction stated that you could simply use the Vienna Flex Ticket to get there during the museum's opening hours (Sisi Museum in the Hofburg) and then gain admission - but this was not the case at all. At the ticket counter of the Sisi Museum we were then told that we had to book a fixed timeslot, which of course we didn't know and on that day everything was already fully booked and overcrowded (by the Republic of China), so that we had no chance of getting into the museum despite having already paid for the ticket. Similar problems then arose at Schönbrunn Palace and the staff at the zoo couldn't do much with the QR code from the Vienna Flexi Ticket because it simply didn't work. It was very annoying and frustrating, we were very disappointed and will definitely NOT be buying a Vienna Ticket again!

A magnificent, must-see place in Vienna! There are priceless works to be seen. For the wire-cut tickets, it was indicated that they had to be exchanged. In the end, exchange was not necessary. It's important to keep to the timetable. We booked for 10:30 and couldn't get in before then. Nice experience.

Getting to the Belvedere PalaceWhat’s inside the Upper Belvedere Palace?
Home to the largest collection of Gustav Klimt paintings, the Upper Belvedere Palace also features works by other artists like Egon Schiele, and Oskar Kokoschka.
The Grand Staircase
The Upper Belvedere's staircase serves as a reminder of the past where the main entrance stood on the south side. This staircase leads up to the main floor. It features a painting of Darius' wives on the left wall and a fresco showing Alexander the Great defeating Darius on the right side.
The Marble Hall
The Marble Hall is distinguished by enormous ceiling frescoes, reddish-brown marble, and lavish gilding. This hall's frescoes were painted by maestros such as Marcantonio Chiarini, Carlo Innocenzo Carlone, and Gaetano Fanti. In 1955, the delegates of four colonial countries signed the agreement that gave Austria freedom in this hall.
Sala Terrana
The Sala Terrana or the ground floor hall has four imposing pillars and is supported by a lavishly decorated vaulted roof. It functions both as the garden hall and entryway because it opens onto the Upper Belvedere's garden side and links to the grand staircase.
The Carlone Hall
The Carlone Hall, also known as the Painted Hall, was named after its builder, the Italian artist, Carlo Innocenzo Carlone. He created the stunning ceiling fresco that shows the Triumphs of Aurora around 1722 to 1723. The room's furnishings are still in place, and the hall was originally used as a place to relax and socialize on warm summer days.
Permanent Collection
The permanent exhibition links Austrian art to that of contemporary international artists. The works of Vincent van Gogh, Claude Monet, and Auguste Rodin are showcased in the collection. You can also find masterpieces from Central Europe's interwar era, like Marie-Louise von Motesicky, Frantisek Kupka, and Laszlo Moholy-Nagy.
