On this tour, we explore the oldest part of Vienna, the First district, where most traces and sites of Vienna’s rich Jewish past and present can be found: those of the first and significant Medieval Jewish community, and the magnificent achievements of the third, which was instrumental in fuelling Vienna’s cultural and economic thriving during the Founder’s time, Vienna's ‘Belle époque’. Beyond these aspects, we gain a comprehensive overview of the entire history with the help of the excellent Jewish Museum of Vienna, whose two closely situated dependencies offer a vividly narrated insight into all aspects past and present, as well as an accessible archaeological excavation site of the Medieval synagogue.

For more than 600 years, the Habsburg family has been ruling the country known as Austria, and many lands today beyond your borders. They evolved from an insignificant lineage of robber barons into a dynasty ruling an empire in which the sun never set, just to finally lose all power in the dawning age of democracy (all..?). No wonder the Habsburgs left us with an ubiquitous legacy which can be deciphered on many buildings, squares, and religious edifices in Vienna’s Old Town as well as inside locations of Imperial presence now museums. Regional traditions and even some character traits of and prejudices against Austrians in general and Viennese in particular can be traced back to the long rule of one dynasty. Last but nor least, we inherited many fascinating, awe-inspiring, at times shocking, sometimes tragical but every so often comical stories, some of which I will share with you on this vivid and colourful historical tour.

We'll begin our tour with the collection's most prized possession -- The Last Judgment by Hieronymus Bosch. The modern viewer is amazed by the inferno in his famous triptych, rather than frightened. It mixes chimeras in the form of half snakes and half eggs, fear of wars and epidemics. And a great deal of the artist's personal frustrations. I invite you to look closely at the details of the painting.  Cranach's The Holy Family, as well as the obe by Jos van Klewe, will reveal the origins of the family portrait genre to us, while the religious paintings of the Quattrocento and Cinquecento art will disclose the rules of making art for religious meditation. And Rubens' The Abduction of Orifia will serve us as an example of what art for sensual pleasure should look like. The most valuable skill for an artist has long been the ability to reveal a complex subject by means of painting. This is why the gallery offers many outstanding examples of "stories" - paintings on biblical or antique subjects, such as Heinrich Füger's Death of Germanicus and Angelo Caroselli's The Suicide of Cato. Together we will try to understand the ideas behind these canvases and to feel how convincing they are for us today.

We will look at, touch, and even smell the art. So be prepared to perceive art with all your senses!
