Lonely Planet review

An unassuming house on Tuchlauben hides quite a remarkable decoration: the oldest extant secular murals in Vienna. The small frescoes, dating from 1398, tell the story of the minstrel Neidhart von Reuental (1180-1240) and life in the Middle Ages, in lively and jolly scenes. The frescoes have lost some colour and are patchy in parts, but are in superb condition considering their age. Neidhart is a municipal museum.
