Your experience
Step into the world of modern psychology with a guided tour at the Sigmund Freud Museum. Located at Berggasse 19 in Vienna, this museum was once Freud’s residence and practice for nearly 47 years. On Sundays, you can explore Freud’s former home with an expert guide, either in English or German, and discover how his revolutionary ideas transformed the way we think about the human mind.
Arrival and check-in
On arrival at the museum, proceed to the main entrance where your ticket will be validated. All guests must have a valid photo ID for check-in. After the quick process, join your guide and group—limited to just 25 participants for a more personal experience—ready to begin your journey inside one of Vienna’s unique cultural landmarks.
Touring Freud’s home and legacy
The tour allows you a closer look at Freud's personal living quarters, as well as his consulting room where psychoanalysis took root. These historically preserved spaces reveal not just Freud’s influential theories but also his personal story, family life and the cultural context of turn-of-the-century Vienna.
Guides share insights into Freud's methods and daily routines and explain how events in his own life shaped some of the most important theories in the field of psychology. Walk through the famous waiting room with its appointments—original books, first editions, papers, and various personal mementos offering a sense of the man behind the monumental work.
Artifacts and exhibitions
Marvel at artifacts from Freud’s private collection of antiquities, a passion that influenced his studies of the mind. Discover rare editions of his works, historic photographs of his family and professional life and original furnishings carefully curated to preserve the museum’s authenticity. Interactive displays and thoughtful curatorial notes throughout the museum connect Freud’s fascination with archaeology to his groundbreaking methods for exploring the unconscious.
