Sisi Museum: The true personality of Empress Elisabeth

The Sisi Museum in the Vienna Hofburg provides an in-depth insight into the life and legend of Empress Elisabeth, also known as Sisi. With over 300 exhibits, including personal items such as jewelry, clothing, beauty recipes and even her original death certificate, the museum reveals the true personality of the often misunderstood monarch.

The tour of the Sisi Museum begins with her tragic death and tells room by room how the myth of Sisi came into being. The exhibition sheds light not only on her role as empress, but also on her unconventional lifestyle and her longing for freedom. The staging by Prof. Rolf Langenfass, which is based on Sisi's poems, creates a unique atmosphere and makes the exhibition an unforgettable experience.
