Tobacco Museum

The Tobacco Museum, located in Vienna, Austria, is considered the largest museum of its kind in the world. It was founded in 1873 to show visitors the history of tobacco, which began in the XV century. The Vienna Tobacco Museum is sponsored by the world-famous tobacco company Austria Tabak, which uses the museum’s premises for meetings of fans of this brand.

Among the exhibits you can see various devices for smoking: pipes, among which there are unique, created by order for significant world figures, lighters, including one of the first, cigars of different shapes, printed tobacco products. The most valuable exhibit is an old vending machine for the sale of tobacco and cigars, which you will not find anywhere else except the Viennese Tobacco Museum. The museum also hosts cultural events that are not always tobacco-related.
