The “birthplace of psychoanalysis”, where the famous physician, psychoanalyst and thinker Sigmund Freud lived and worked for nearly half a century, offers a modernized and enlarged museum infrastructure, including a new foyer, shop and café, all made wheelchair accessible. Europe’s largest library of psychoanalysis is newly renovated and serves as a platform for research and communication.
The architectural concept was developed by Atelier Czech, Walter Angonese and ARTEC Architects.
Since the COVID 19 situation has repeatedly delayed our construction and renovation work, we are now planning to open the Sigmund Freud Museum in late summer 2020.
During this difficult time, we are working on the completion of the museum complying to all safety regulations and are already looking forward to welcoming you to the newly renovated Berggasse 19!
Many thanks for your understanding and – stay safe and healthy!
