Museum Kierling

The Universal Museum Kierling was founded in 1987 as a "local history museum" and has built up several independent collections over the course of its development, which justify the name "Universal Museum". Awarded the "Austrian Museum Seal of Quality", it houses the world's largest collection of silhouettes by Kierling-born artist Josefine Allmayer and her father and teacher Hans Allmayer, whose specialties included Vienna Woods motifs. Also on display here is the unique gastronomy collection of the chef and former president of the Austrian Chefs' Association, Herbert Hüpfel, an extensive collection of trades and crafts, as well as a local history collection, which shows in particular the town of Kierling as a former Vienna Woods summer resort.

In the outdoor area is the "Wagenburg" with a large collection of large and small agricultural equipment from times when farming was of great importance in the Vienna Woods. Special attractions include a feudal coffin wagon and a wreath wagon, as well as the only preserved mobile field oven from the monarchy in Austria (M1901).
