Albertina

Albertina

Dürer, Monet, and a balcony view of the opera.

Tucked into Vienna, Albertina is one of those places that quietly earns its reputation — the kind of museum you walk past once, then think about all week. Dürer, Monet, and a balcony view of the opera, and the locals quietly resent that we wrote about it.

Best at the edges of the day — a quiet weekday afternoon — and worth the detour even if you're staying on the other side of town. Bring a friend, leave the phone in your bag.
