During a recent trip to Austria, stopped by this museum in Vienna and it turned out to be favorite stop on the entire trip. A great museum with wall-to-wall memorabilia, props, bios, and collectibles from the movie. Could easily spend hours here looking at everything and reading everything on display. Includes some really fun exhibits for fans of the movie - including a couple of photo opps that put you in the movie. Along with this entire collection of movie memorabilia, you'll find a whole section of the museum on the real history of the time, which is reflected in throughout the movie. The historical aspect of this museum is fascinating and could be a complete museum on its own. If you are a fan of WWII history or a movie buff, this is an attraction in Vienna to not be missed.

This is one of the best museums I have visited. The fascinating story about the movie and postwar Vienna is so well presented. This is a must-visit for anyone with the slightest interest in history. Many thanks to Gerhard and Karin who has created the Third-Man-Museum!

We just visited this museum, this afternoon. We knew that it is a personal hobby/obsession of the owners, only open on Saturday afternoons, so only expected it to be small. But it was huge! And keeps growing (six weeks ago they bought a gravestone that appears in the film). It was so interesting and wonderful to listen to the passion of the two owners. We went to watch The Third Man, the evening before at the nearby Burg Kino. This was great fun too and a good reminder about the film.

This is a fantastic museum, in three buildings and is packed with so much information about the famous film, including original photographs, and items, plus scripts and the iconic zither played by Anton Karas. Interesting information about post war Vienna is also there as well as newspaper cuttings and photographs along with videos really gives an idea of what it was like during that period in the city's history. Gerhard the museum's owner is very warm and friendly and we chatted for quite a time especially about Graham Greene, the writer of the book and screenplay of The Third Man, as I had been in a film that was based on a short story he wrote when he was alive which he found interesting. Gerhard told me and my husband about his visit with his wife Karin, (she is lovely), to the famous man's grave in Switzerland and also how they got to know his daughter. I can thoroughly recommend this museum, it is a real gem. Also thank you Gerhard and Karin for the recommendation to Cafe Savoy we had a really good coffee and delicious cake there.

I took the private tour, which I would really recommend for hardcore film fans. The curator is friendly, funny, and knows everything there is to know about the film and the people who were involved in making it. He also situates the film in the context of post WW2 Vienna. The museum itself is full of genuine memorabilia - posters from around the world, annotated scripts, handwritten correspondence, props, personal photos and items from cast and crew, even equipment that was used to make the film - plus stuff from 1940s Vienna that helps to contextualise the film. You could stay here all day looking at it if you're a person who loves detail. I can wholeheartedly recommend this museum for those who appreciate a labour of love, and for those who like deep dives into classic films. Thanks for having me!

We were a family group of 6 & had the Cold War Tour & Third Man Museum trip with Gerhard. It was so interesting and you get to see and hear about important areas of Vienna. Gerhard who takes the tour & has created the Third Man Museum was excellent. It was so easy to arrange before we arrived in Vienna. I would highly recommend this tour. It’s learning about recent history of Vienna and then the Third Man Film. Thank you Gerhard.

This museum was the highlight of my trip to Vienna! I visited while solo travelling, and loved getting lost in the extensive and enchanting collection. I was blown away by the treasure trove of rare film memorabilia - from Trevor Howard’s original Third Man script with his hand written notes, to letters between producers and writers. This lent a fascinating insight into the behind the scenes world and workings of the 1950s film industry. The museum exudes a passion for cinema which is palpable and moving. I would 100% recommend for anyone interested in film, history, or bothL!

I highly recommend the museum and the small group tour. Our group of 3 took the Cold War Vienna walking tour. Gerhard has extensive knowledge of the times before, during, and after the war, and he shares his knowledge and his passion for the subject, along with sights that tie into The Third Man. The tour ends with a visit to the museum and its collection of many interesting items from the film. The museum also includes an enlightening collection of items that reveal many aspects of post-war life and struggles in Vienna. We were extremely glad to spend time with Gerhard and that we made the tour and museum part of our visit to Vienna.

The museum was amazing! I love the film and it was great to see so many stills, posters and memorabilia. The owners have spent years collecting items and they are lovingly displayed. A highlight for me was seeing 2 minutes of the film shown on a 1936 projector. I could have watched more! Also very interesting was the exhibition on post war Vienna. A must see museum when visiting Vienna. Thank you.
