A museum´s multisensory approach to its exhibitions

The Wien Museum is a leading museum in Vienna covering the history of the city. In a comprehensive renovation and expansion of the building, a multisensory approach to its exhibition was implemented, using a multisensory, multilingual, and multi-format approach. Annual visitor numbers rose from 130,000 pre-renovation to 650,000 in 2024, with a steadily growing number of visitors requesting these services, such as inclusive school classes and NGOs.

Solution: Wien Museum Renovation and Expansion
Organization: Wien Museum
