This was an interesting museum. The people are nice in you can learn from it. You can’t take photos inside so I will not be able to provide you with any photos. Although the museum is small and the gift area is small and doesn’t relate to the museum as much. It was a cute museum and is different. If you either live in the area are having a long vacation and have a day witch you have nothing in mind, then you could stop by this place.

It's a small museum, very very nice. If you like art, you have to visit it to see how it was counterfeit in the past.

I am a lover of both art and crime so what better way to indulge both curiosities than a museum of Fake Art? This museum is absolutely unique and jam packed with information on not only the artist but the theory behind faking art. I especially liked how, for most of the art, they had a picture of the original or at least another piece by the original artist for you to compare the faked art to. Some of those painters really knew their stuff! Not only were they able to reproduce the art with near flawless execution, but were also able to show the wear and tear of time! Brilliance! The cherry on top was how helpful and knowledgeable the staff was. When I informed them I was an english teacher in Hungary and was always looking for some interesting reading information for my kids, they delivered in a fantastic way! I'm excited to start a lesson plan about this obscure but nevertheless intriguing topic! Thank you for everything! I'll be back again soon!

A fantastic museum, fascinating stories of copiers and forgers, showing their skill as well as some of their crimes. It’s small but perfectly formed with loads of information as well as the art people have made. Really recommend this alongside the rest of the galleries Vienna has to offer.

Fun place. Mostly the stories behind the pieces is interesting so it's a lot of reading, at least for me (do check out the corner with the books for some more reading material and great stories). But if you are well versed in particular artists that have been faked you may get a lot more out of the visual aspect than I did. Definitely worth a visit and the couple running the place are really wonderful

This just might be the best museum we visited during our stay in Vienna. We will tell all our friends to visit the Museum of Art Fakes instead of the Belvedere!
