Filmarchiv Austria, Film archive and museum in Laxenburg, Austria.

Filmarchiv Austria is the country's largest film archive, holding over 260,000 film titles, 2,000,000 photographs and stills, 48,000 cinema programmes, 16,000 posters and 30,000 books. Its central facilities are at the Audiovisuelles Zentrum Wien-Augarten in Vienna, while film storage occupies the Altes Schloss in Laxenburg. The publicly accessible Studienzentrum in the Obere Augartenstraße 1 provides over 20,000 copies of Austrian films on video and DVD.

The roots of the institution go back to 1929, when a film archive was established at the Austrian National Library. The current institution was founded in 1955 as a separate body, building on that earlier foundation.

The archive holds films, photographs, posters, and technical equipment that trace Austrian cinema from its earliest years to today. The Audio-Visual Center Augarten in Vienna serves as the main public access point, where researchers and film enthusiasts can consult the holdings.

Access to the research facilities and film collection requires booking an appointment in advance, so it is worth planning ahead before arriving. For a visit to the Augarten location in Vienna, the same advice applies, and checking opening conditions beforehand will save time.

The oldest preserved items are the Vienna sequences shot by the Lumière Brothers in 1896. The oldest native Austrian film is the 1903 documentary Der Kaiserbesuch in Braunau/Inn by Johann Bläser, a travelling film-show proprietor.
