The Vienna Technical Museum (Technisches Museum Wien) is a museum dedicated to the history of science and technology. The museum was founded in 1909, making it one of the oldest technical museums in Europe. It is located in Vienna, Austria, and houses a collection of over 22,000 objects, including historical inventions, machines, and tools.

The museum's permanent exhibits cover a wide range of topics, including transportation, energy, communications, computing, and manufacturing. Visitors can explore the history of the automobile, aviation, and rail transportation, and see a range of historic vehicles, engines, and machines. There are also exhibits on energy sources, such as coal, oil, gas, and nuclear power, as well as on renewable energy and energy efficiency.

In addition to the permanent exhibits, the Vienna Technical Museum also hosts temporary exhibitions on various topics related to science and technology. The museum also offers a range of educational programs, including workshops, guided tours, and lectures for all age groups.

One of the museum's highlights is the multimedia "Future Lab", which features interactive exhibits on current and emerging technologies, including 3D printing, robotics, and virtual reality. Visitors can also see the historic "Large Hadron Collider" (LHC) particle accelerator, a replica of the original LHC at CERN in Switzerland, which has played a key role in the discovery of the Higgs boson particle.
