Artstetten Castle is a fabulous setting to immerse oneself into the fateful years of the Austro-Hungarian Monarchy. Here the memory of Heir Apparent Archduke Franz Ferdinand and his wife the Duchess Sophie von Hohenberg is preserved. Both fell victims to a murderous attack in Sarajevo in 1914 and they entered history as the two first victims of World War I.
-
Exhibition “Through a Keyhole: History Telling”: the visitors to the museum encounter the thin line between joy and suffering, life and death, and enter the varied world of the political thinker, reformer, collector, but above all of the family man Archduke Franz Ferdinand. A moving family story comes to life!

The Family Crypt
In 1908 Archduke Franz Ferdinand commissioned the construction of the family crypt. Already 1914 both Archduke Franz Ferdinand and his wife Duchess Sophie became interred here, thanks to the unequal status the interment of Duchess Sophie von Hohenberg in the Imperial Crypt remained barred.
