Elisabeth of Bavaria could be a relative of the flamboyant Louis II of Bavaria, whose Wagnerian folly brought us some wonderful castles and a masterpiece of cinema, when the young Francis Joseph I, became emperor of Austria prematurely following the abdication of her uncle drove by the revolutions of 1848, had fallen in love with the beautiful in Bad Ischl, when he was initially expected that he married the eldest sister.
Thus became Empress Elisabeth of Austria, his own life and tragic death would transform the Empress in legend and in the following century the young Romy Schneider would conclude to be a myth, the point is now a museum dedicated to that which is now for all Sissi, even within the Hofburg, the imperial complex in the heart of Vienna.
This museum is very logically named Sissi Museum, Museum Sissi is in French, hard to mistake her for …

Sissi greets visitors.

The entrance to the museum, or rather the complex comprising the Sissi Museum, the Imperial Apartments and Rooms of Silver, is under the dome Michael, this rotunda topped by a dome of copper, which flanks the southern Hofburg, and the input side is Old Town.
A canopy of fantasy gives the impression the visitor to enter the imperial splendor, and as was said about an old advertising Eram it would be crazy not to go under the dense canopy, the silhouette silhouette Sissi bar l entry, the program is displayed immediately, the Empress is the romantic star of the museum.
The fund is still a point  obliged to pass the time to do relieve a small amount, well, not so very small indeed, and get the sesame that opens access to Sissi Museum, but also for the same price to Imperial Apartments and Rooms for Silver, but that visit the three in one day is a little program to the Japanese.
There are still climbing the steps of a staircase imperial finally be in the museum Sissi …

The timeline is met.

The visitor is immediately facing the death mask of the Empress, exposed as a relic in a very simple room, dimly lit with a light blue, a sort of crypt of the third millennium, before discovering the passage of the myths that describes how Sissi became an object of worship since his death, just like Lady Di today, introducing both a beautiful statue of Anton Koltz up memories more than anecdotal, but struck in honor of the disappeared. Photographs of monuments which were raised, which is also a built in Volksgarten near the Hofburg, the cult say then, the film clips and reproduction of posters say that today, when Romy Schneider plays forever the fate of romantic Sissi, especially perhaps she was herself to die tragically.
The next course is more traditional, with an evocation of the rich and carefree youth of Sissi, a beautiful wooden bust shows the seven years of wonderful cookies from the Imperial Porcelain Factory in Vienna represent with Francis Joseph, puisl it goes on with a presentation of the splendors of the court, we admire the splendid portrait by Franz Xaver Winterhalter-like marble bust of Viktor Tilgner, and regrets that the jewels are only replicas, the originals having been lost long ago, the few works of art are remarkable, the jewels are fake by definition.
The vision of the Empress then becomes more personal, with a black dress she wore mourning after his son, too romantic Rudolph who committed suicide at Mayerling with Baroness Vetsera, and testimony of his life, range leather this excellent rider took the time to go flat out of his saddle, restoring the splendor of pageantry car she borrowed to cover Europe, and a time to escape the ritual of weighing the imperial court, the it brushes by the wife and the empress, travel and sport.
The last room is devoted to the end, as Sissi died stabbed by an Italian anarchist on the shores of Lake Geneva, one can read the autopsy report in the French lawyer Helvetian and see the basic dagger that sealed the fate a sexagenarian still alert despite his fatigue …

The museum is actually rather minor.

The scenery is spectacular, with mirror effects or lights, but the museum is not large, only a few rooms, and does not ultimately a lot of original pieces, dresses are copies of originals are too fragile, the Jewelry reconstructions of missing documents, the originals are quite rare, some paintings or sculptures, others are mentioned in photography, such as monuments scattered throughout the Austro-Hungarian Empire.

The visit is unpleasant, there are pretty little things, Winterhalter are particularly beautiful, but the subject is sometimes a little flying in the museum quickly, which we still have the feeling that he has been there to attract tourists to the imperial apartments, however superb, taking advantage of the brand Sissi, and the museum, although sympathetic, does not quite rise to the myth Sissi, even if the opportunity to learn more about the life of the beautiful anorexic, which would certainly not disgraced in modern magazines with 48 kilograms for 1.73 meters, a slender silhouette away from the roundness of rigor so comfortable …

Sissi? If it rains!

The Sisi Museum is a fun little museum, which presents with a little swagger few memories and works around the romantic Empress, who escaped the pomp required to become a legend, both in its sylph-like figure who struck his contemporaries as his fate full of twists, surprise Empress, bereaved by the suicide of her son and then murdered by a fanatic.
The admission ticket is common with the imperial apartments, we can continue to enjoy visiting the authentic apartments Sissi, where you will cross back memories of the Empress, as elsewhere if n It is only in the rooms dedicated to him in this museum a few minor …
