Johann Strauss II, the first pop star in world history, will be honored in Vienna with a modern monument on the occasion of his 200th birthday in 2025. A new permanent exhibition in the city center makes his genius tangible and expands Vienna’s cultural and tourism offerings. More than a retrospective: the exhibition becomes an experience, allowing guests to closely discover, hear, and feel Strauss’s breathtaking life. Entertainment and information merge into a multimedia symphony.
