This beautiful museum explores the life and history of one of Austria's most well-known empresses - Empress Elisabeth, fondly called 'Sisi'. The museum has six rooms, which contain her personal belongings including her gowns, poems, jewelry and even her diet regimes. As you move on from one room to the next, the story of her life unfolds before you, until you reach the last room, where a portrayal of her assassination in Geneva is disclosed. The museum also exhibits exquisite portraits of the empress when she was around 42 years of age, much after she stopped the media from capturing her photographic images. A visit to the museum is an opportunity to know the actual life led by an empress who was much misunderstood when alive. The cost of the tickets ranges from EUR19 for adults, EUR9.50 for children under 15 and EUR15.50 for students under 25.
