To mark its 50th anniversary, the Circus & Clown Museum Vienna is dedicating an exhibition to this special chapter of Austrian circus history. It invites visitors to look back on five decades full of new beginnings, crises, fresh starts, poetry, and circus art.

In July 2026, we were delighted to present our new website to the public. The entire team is overjoyed that our online presence has finally arrived in this millennium.
