Albertina

The Albertina Museum, in Vienna's Old Town, is a treasure trove of imperial splendor and priceless works of art. During the time of the Habsburg monarchy, this building served as the city's grandest palace, but it is currently home to a world-class art museum. Many people from all over the world visit this city and its museums because this king's name is linked to one of the world's most important collections of graphic art in this museum.
