Lonely Planet review

The Geymüllerschlössel is arguably the finest example of Biedermeier architecture in Austria. Built around 1808 by an unknown architect, it is a mixture of Gothic, Indian and Arabic styles from that time. The interior, embellished with floral designs and graceful lines, is perfectly preserved. It houses MAK's collection of around 160 Viennese clocks made from 1760 to the second half of the 19th century, and furniture from the period 1800 to 1840.

It's named after its first owner, the banker and merchant Johann Jakob Geymüller. It's a fair way out from the centre and best combined with a walk in the Wienerwald nearby.
