    Works of art across all media dating back to the Middle Ages are on display at the Museum of Applied Arts. Head to Österreicher im Mak for local comfort food, such as pork goulash and veal schnitzel.

    Some interesting objects but really chaotic layout and crowded navigation, and the curation confused more than helped make sense of what we’re looking at or why it is important at all
