Coffeemuseum Vienna, coffee museum in Vienna, Austria

Coffeemuseum Vienna is a small museum located on the ground floor of the Museum for Society and Economy, showcasing coffee history from harvest to cup. The exhibits display coffee machines, grinders, tools, and furnishings from traditional Viennese coffee houses, along with antique cups and coffee beans from different regions.

The museum opened in 2003 as part of the Austrian Museum of Society and Economy (Österreichisches Gesellschafts- und Wirtschaftsmuseum). In May 2007 it established the Kolshitsky Archive, named after Yuri Franz Kolshitsky, a Viennese coffee pioneer. The archive collects documents and materials on the history of coffee in Vienna.
