Universalmuseum Joanneum

The Universalmuseum Joanneum is considered the biggest of its kind in Central Europe. About 4,9 million items in the collections form the basis of a richly faceted ‘universal’ exhibition and events schedule. A programme of exhibitions and events at 13 locations throughout Styria transmit a unique panorama of science, art and culture. Apart from scientific periodicals, exhibition catalogues and annual reports, the Museum publishes a series of books about its collections. Information folders, newsletters, social media and a monthly programme brochure round off the informative publications available.

General Accessibility in the Museum (Accessibility)

Building accessibility enables all visitors to enter our museums independently and have a hassle-free and enjoyable experience. This process is facilitated by wheelchair accessible entrances which enable independent opening (push button/door opener), automatic and motorised doorways and touch-based guidance systems and pictograms. Detailed information on our website also simplifies planning of museum visits.

Usability (Easy Read & Understanding)

It is important to us that as many visitors as possible can ‘use’ our museums and enjoy a pleasant visit. Use of clear pictograms and high-contrast writing makes it easier for visitors to find their way around the buildings and exhibitions.

Wheel chairs are available free-of-charge to visitors at the counter of the following museums. Please presend your photo ID.
