We were in Vienna for a week in 2013. Loved it. Just loved it.

The movie Museum Hours had just come out before we went, which is set in and around the Kunsthistorisches Museum.

It was amazing to see all the Klimt's at the Belvedere. And then, of course, there is the movie about the Woman in Gold and the story
of Maria Altmann getting the Klimt painting of her aunt, Adele Bloch-Bauer, back from the Austrians (stolen by the Nazis), which now hangs at the Neue Galerie in New York.
