Visit Swarovski Kristallwelten Museum in 2024

Opened in 1995 to mark the centenary of Swarovski's founding, the Kristallwelten Museum presents a multifaceted journey into the world of crystals. Brainchild of multimedia artist André Heller, this museum is not just a display of glittering gems but an art installation that delves deep into the realms of fantasy, imagination, and creativity.
One of the most iconic features greeting visitors is the "Giant" – a mystical figure with sparkling eyes and a fountain cascading from its mouth. Within this colossal structure lies the entrance to the museum's underground chambers, where each room unveils a unique crystal-themed universe. From surreal crystal forests and art installations to innovative displays featuring fashion, jewelry, and design collaborations, the museum is a visual feast.
Beyond the indoor displays, the garden landscape of Swarovski Kristallwelten is a marvel in itself. The Crystal Cloud, composed of 800,000 hand-mounted crystals, floats above a serene black mirror pool, creating a mesmerizing spectacle.
