With around 65,000 drawings and more than a million old master prints, the Albertina is a mightily impressive collection of art. Located in the largest Habsburg residential palace, the collection also includes more modern works - including two significant collections of Impressionist and early 20th-century art, and temporary exhibitions. Also on display are 21 exquisite Habsburg state rooms, spread over two floors of the palace.

The paintings were absolutely beautiful and I liked the short biographic videos of the artist. However, the Chagall exhibition I visited was much too crowded. It was hard to pass through, people were getting irritated, and the rooms were too warm. There should be a limit of tickets for specific time...
Tickets were easy to obtain on line and then there was no worry we might not get in as the magnificent Chagall Exhibition is nearly coming to an end and we travelled from Prague to see it. The permanent collection Monet to Picasso at Albertina is extensive and excellent, also well worth seeing.
