Dritte Mann Museum

Third Man Museum (Third Man Museum). In the immediate vicinity of the beautiful Naschmarkt there is an extensive collection of original exhibits from the classic film "The Third Man", which was filmed in Vienna in 1948.

And there is an impressive documentation on the historical background of the film with originals from the Vienna occupation period (1945-1955). It all comes together to provide an unforgettable glimpse into life and history in post-war Vienna.

13 rooms with 2,500 original exhibits and the film zither by Anton Karas can be seen. His film music went around the world and triggered a veritable zither boom in the 1950s. Four hundred playable covers of the "Harry Lime theme" give a sense of how popular the music was at the time.
