Website | EmailThe Museum of Military History lies outside central Vienna and was designed by Theophil Hansen and Ludwig Förster. After the revolution of 1848, Emperor Franz Joseph I built the Arsenal to prevent Vienna's common people getting arms to fight the authorities. Today, visitors to the Arsenal can find a collection of historical memorabilia, arms, flags, uniforms and paintings of battles. These trophies give an overview of the development of Austrian military life since the beginning of the 17th century.
