Founded in 1863 under Emperor Franz Joseph, the MAK is one of the most grandiose buildings on Vienna's Ringstraße. With its unique collection of precious arts and crafts from five centuries, it is one of the most important museums of its kind worldwide. A museum highlight is the exhibition "Vienna 1900" with masterpieces of the Wiener Werkstätte by Gustav Klimt, Josef Hoffmann and Koloman Moser as well as design icons by Otto Wagner and Adolf Loos.
