What to see

The main ALBERTINA, near the opera, combines modern painting, changing exhibitions and palace state rooms. The Batliner Collection is a good starting point for modern art; drawings, prints and photography appear in the changing programme.

Check the exhibition list if you are coming for a particular artist or drawing, since the full collection is not always on display. Allow two to three hours, or longer for several temporary exhibitions.
