Simple answer yes. They have a cloakroom down a few stairs to the right of the main entrance hall. They will take coats and cases etc as it’s in their interest that you don’t go bounding through the exhibits like the proverbial bull in a China shop! They are also fine for you to pop back and forth to get things, as for example during the Christmas market period they expect you to go get your coat and layers at 11 ish when the market opens right outside between the natural history and art history museums.
How long would you say it takes to get around the museum? Thinking of going Wednesday evening around 6pm

Hi, We went on a Wednesday evening in June and it took us about 1 hour to see this Museum. It's was very hot and the Museum didn't have air conditioned, so I think we rushed a bit, but if you are going at 6 pm, I think it's plenty of time, depending if it's your first Natural History Museum or not.
Hey! Do you need to purchase a ticket in advance or can you just turn up? Is there any risk of being turned away if you don't purchase ahead of time. Thanks!
A:
No you don't have to purchase in advance, but if you use your Vienna pass, you get through quicker. Good Luck & enjoy.
It seems some of the Vienna museums require you to check in even a light jacket. Is that required here?
A:
My advice is if you can wear it, then take it off as you start to go around, as we did it will not be a problem. But yes they do ask you to place your jackets and bags (we kept our phones) …
My advice is if you can wear it, then take it off as you start to go around, as we did it will not be a problem. But yes they do ask you to place your jackets and bags (we kept our phones) in a locker which in the Natural History Museum was free all that was said was that we could leave a tip. Enjoy your visit it will be worth while.
