You regularly visit our museum or are simply fascinated by technical achievements? You would like to leave this world knowing that you have done something for posterity?

You have the opportunity to do so by leaving a bequest or legacy to the Technisches Museum Wien (Vienna Museum of Science and Technology).
You wish to give something back to society, pass on a piece of cultural heritage and support research with your estate?

Our museum has a one-of-a-kind collection of the highest quality by national and international comparison. Nobody can see into the future and yet we collect the present for the future today, just like people collected things for an unknown future a hundred years ago. Our activities are based on an implicit intergenerational contract. But not only future generations are to benefit from the objects we collect and preserve today – we also provide our visitors with varied insights in the present.

By leaving a legacy (bequest) to the Technisches Museum Wien, you send a message to the next generations, once again emphasising what is particularly close to your heart.

With your bequest, you actively support
  • applied museum research and leave lasting traces in preserving our unique collection – as many as 130,000 objects are housed at the museum or in the depot.
  • our services ranging from large exhibitions and online programmes to knowledge transfer for all age groups.
If you are considering including our museum in your will, we are always at your disposal to offer you advice and put you in touch with independent notaries and lawyers to accompany you on your personal path to making a will.
