The Kunsthistorisches Museum’s Department of Sculpture and Decorative Arts houses unique holdings assembled by several members of the Habsburg family in their “Kunst- und Wunderkammern” (cabinets of art and wonders). These different collections were united in 1891 when the Imperial Museum of Fine Art (todays Kunsthistorisches Museum)was opened on Vienna’s Ringstrasse.
