Egon-Schiele-Museum

The jail, built in 1898, where Schiele was imprisioned in 1912, was renovated for that reason.

[1] The opening of the museum took place on June 12, 1990, the 100th anniversary of Schiele's birth.

90 paintings of Schiele and many photographs of his life and his family are exhibited.

On the ground floor there are pieces related to Schiele's childhood in Tulln, as well as relics of his school-time in Klosterneuburg and as a student in Vienna.

Famous paintings include Blick über verschneite Weingärten auf Klosterneuburg which Schiele painted in 1907, and the Old Mill from 1916 [2] The Egon Schiele-Museum is situated near the Danube river.
