Synopsis

The new Prater Museum - the exhibition publication

At the center of the Wurstelprater amusement park, on the site of a former amusement arcade, the new Prater Museum, one of Vienna's first public buildings to be constructed in wood, will open in 2024.

The role of the Prater park as a traditional place of leisure and amusement is a special focus of the Wien Museum. In addition to original objects - including carousel figures, parts of a ghost train, early slot machines, and Punch and Judy figures - the Prater collection includes plans, models, photographs, admission tickets, program booklets, posters, and works of art.

This book introduces the highlights of the more than 300 objects in the new Prater Museum. It deals with the big issues of modern life: the relationship between nature and city; man and animal; modern technology and the human body.

• The catalog for the exhibition of the new Prater Museum of the Wien Museum, Vienna
• Published together with the essay collection entitled Der Wiener Prater. Labor der Moderne to mark the opening of the new Vienna Prater Museum in March 2024
