Neue Hofburg at Heldenplatz

Tickets

Welcome to the Neue Hofburg!

Rising proudly on Heldenplatz, the Neue Hofburg stands as an impressive testament to imperial ambition and visionary architecture. Originally planned as a magnificent residence for the ruling family, the monumental project remained unfinished despite decades of construction. However, the radiant marble Hall of Columns, the grand staircases, and selected state rooms still exude the flair of imperial grandeur today. 

Take a stroll through the last grand residence intended for Empress Elisabeth and marvel at the rich artistic heritage of the Habsburgs.

A grand, spacious lobby features intricate marble columns and ornate architectural details. Natural light filters through a large glass ceiling, illuminating the polished floors with a delicate pattern. The room exudes a sense of elegance and history, with doorways leading to other areas.
