Sissi beyond the film image

The Keizerin Elisabeth Museum is a museum in a private home in Susteren. The private collection covers the life of Elisabeth of Austria and distinguishes between the historical person and later films and musicals.

Plan your visit ↗

The historical Elisabeth

Start with objects and explanations that refer directly to Elisabeth’s life. Ask which source lies behind a date, journey or personal trait before you accept the story.

Sissi on screen

The well-known film trilogy created its own image of the empress. Compare film stills or memorabilia with the historical presentation and identify where imagination changes the story.

A collection at home

The guided tour is given personally and has no fixed public schedule. That leaves room for questions, but makes a confirmed appointment necessary.

Before you go

Visits are only possible after making an appointment by phone or in writing. At the same time, ask about the price, duration, group size and accessibility of the house; these details have not been fully confirmed.

Sources

This information has been compiled from public sources. Not everything has been confirmed by the museum itself; please check opening hours and prices on the museum's website.
