About the exhibition
The Hunting Museum, the Agriculture Museum and the Erzherzog Johann Museum now form a unit in Schloss Stainz for those themes all shaped by this man. In seven rooms covering an exhibition surface area of some 650 m² (not including traffic areas) on the second floor of Schloss Stainz, the Archduke Johann Museum uses many original objects to present the ideas, models, institutions, and difficulties, too, in the life of Archduke Johann. In this way, new perspectives on life in the 19th century are added to the myth that surrounds this personality.
Visitors experience an exciting tour through a cultural history of Styria, featuring as yet unpublished original documents, paintings and watercolours, as well as digital copies and the most up-to-date methods of presentation.
