Beautiful carriages - Beautiful museum situated within the grounds of Schonbrunn Palace. Small and doesn’t take too long to look around but definitely worth a look, especially if you have the Vienna pass because it’s included on it. It has some beautiful carriages from all different eras of Vienna. Some rather eerie all in black as funeral carriages; and some very grand and sparkly. Also houses some collections of uniforms and dresses.

A gem of a museum - The total range of displays. Well worth while spending an hr or more after walking the gardens just to get an idea of the grandeur of the inhabitants of the castle.I was surprised at the number of carriages on display,from the coronation coach to tha huge sombre funeral carriage.

A high quality museum - The most interesting museum on Imperial history. It is located in Schonbrünn and is very informative. Beyond the carriages, you also have explanatory videos mainly on the life of Sisi. Entrance at 12€ with Vienna card, you can easily spend 1h30 at this very interesting museum. There is a combined ticket with the Imperial Treasure Museum for €24 but to choose from, the Carriage Museum remains the best.

Unavoidable - After the palace, we continue the visit to the carriage museum. Beautiful exhibition. Please note, closes early and last entries 1/2 hour before closing.

Do not overlook! - Just a few steps to the side from the hustle and bustle of the main building with a fairly inconspicuous entrance. The collection of old carriages, robes and more is absolutely worth seeing. No queues at the entrance, no crowds and certainly no less impressive than, for example, the Sisi exhibition.

Surprisingly interesting museum - Interestingly well designed exhibition of different carriages. So be sure to use good explanations in the audio guides. The only thing missing was the common thread. Some of the exhibits looked set up without meaning. Otherwise, the Wagenburg is definitely worth it.

Valid - Museum next to the imperial palace with a decent collection of carriages and ceremonial dresses. Seeing them up close shows the power of an empire.
