Inclusive guided tours and offers
Target group-specific tours:
- Touch tours are offered for groups of visually impaired people, during which highlights of the collection, especially the treasures relating to Rudolf the Founder, can also be accessed haptically and other works of art are described in such a way that a good picture is created in the mind.
- The workshop series “So close to the center” was developed together with day centers that care for people with dementia. It brings back memories, discovers new things in art and connects both with the here and now.
- Inclusive art education programs are aimed at people with different biographical backgrounds and combine art experiences with creative activities in the Dom Atelier.
Sensory mediation aids:
- The famous portrait of Rudolf the founder and a section of his precious burial cover are available as a relief representation for tactile exploration. The Dom Museum Wien app offers detailed audio descriptions.
- There are additional multisensory teaching materials for guided groups.
