Museum der Moderne Salzburg Mönchsberg

A location of the Museum of Modern Art Salzburg is situated high above the rooftops of the Salzburg old town on Mönchsberg. In a stylish setting, international art treasures from the 20th and 21st centuries are presented across a total of three levels.

Modern art in a prominent location

In recent years, the Museum der Moderne has raised the bar in art matters to a whole new level. Displayed on an area of 2300 square meters are internationally acclaimed modern and contemporary art pieces, as well as works from their own collections, which the public can enjoy in a series of rotating exhibitions. The unique, puristic exhibition space never fails to excite visitors from around the world.

Unique Architecture

The Museum der Moderne, designed by Munich architecture team Friedrich Hoff Zwink, was officially opened in 2004.  Special architectural features include glassed-in staircases with views of the 19th-century water tower, as well as an exterior which is clad in local marble from the Untersberg.

Multimedia guide

A multimedia guide is now available in the MuseumStars app (for iOS and Android) with a wide range of information and services:
