Good luck

Time to celebrate: special guided tour on World Happiness Day. ‘Happiness is a fleeting thing’ is not only written on an ornamental glass in the Ambras collections, but was also an apt motto in the Renaissance. What did luck mean in the 16th century? How did one achieve happiness in tournaments, happiness in marriage or a happy reign? And does the portrait of the pig in the Kunstkammer say anything about the great happiness of Archduke Ferdinand II? Guided tour price: EUR 6 per person plus admission Admission and guided tour tickets available in the webshop (shop.khm.at/tickets) or on site at the museum ticket office.
