Due to official requirements the State Hall and all museums of the Austrian National Library are closed until presumably 12 December 2021.
The Austrian National Library will automatically extend all currently valid annual passes for the museums free of charge for the duration of the corona-related closure period once the museums have reopened. Holders do not have to take any further steps.
