Enzi's Travel Diary
April 24, 2026 – MuseumsQuartier Vienna
The journey begins where the Enzi calls home: at the MuseumsQuartier Vienna. Situated between the Leopold Museum and mumok, this iconic piece of furniture sets off on a journey across Austria—ready to discover new places and collect stories.
To mark the 25th anniversary of the MQ, Enzi is kicking off its tour of selected Austrian Leading Sights. To start things off, it will receive its first stickers from the MuseumsQuartier, the Leopold Museum, and the mumok.
What is otherwise an integral part of life at MQ is now becoming a traveler in its own right: a companion that connects places and brings people together. With its first stickers in tow, Enzi leaves its usual spot in the main courtyard and sets off for its next stop.
The journey has begun.
April 27, 2026 – Vienna Furniture Museum
The first stop is a true Viennese hidden gem. Tucked away on Mariahilfer Straße, the Enzi makes a stop in the green courtyard of one of the world’s largest museums of interior design. Where horses once stood, transporting the furniture of Sisi, Maria Theresa, and other members of the Habsburg family, Enzi is now making a two-week guest appearance. It is surrounded by 61,000 furnishings and pieces of furniture spanning four centuries—from the Baroque era to the 21st century.
There’s a lot going on here: The new special exhibition “Made in Austria” has opened, our own Eurovision Song Contest program is in its final stages of preparation, and there are exciting guided tours and upcycling design workshops.
Call for photos: Come on by, be a part of the Enzi Furniture Museum’s history, and take a selfie with the iconic chair.
May 12, 2026 – Schönbrunn Palace: Enzi Meets a World Heritage Site
The Enzi is now on display in the very place where renowned emperors and empresses such as Maria Theresa, Elisabeth, and Franz Joseph once lived. It is prominently displayed in the imperial courtyard of Vienna’s top attraction and one of Austria’s most important cultural treasures.
In 2026, Schönbrunn Palace, the Palace Gardens, and Schönbrunn Zoo will jointly celebrate 30 years as a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
Over the next two weeks, the Enzi will be seen by visitors from all over the world—by guests taking a tour of the palace, by laughing children on their way out of the maze or the Children’s Museum, as well as by people strolling through the Schönbrunn Palace Gardens.
Take a souvenir photo with the Enzi in Schönbrunn before it continues its journey through Austria.
May 26, 2026 – Heidi Horten Collection
For two weeks, the legendary Enzi will be on display at the Heidi Horten Collection. In the museum’s sculpture garden, the iconic MQ chair blends seamlessly into its new surroundings: nestled among works by Erwin Wurm, Miquel Barceló, and Claude Lalanne, and set against the colorful courtyard pavement surrounding the museum—which cools the asphalt as part of a climate art project.
The Enzi is also in excellent company here: the Heidi Horten Collection brings together masterpieces of modern and contemporary art—where Klimt, Picasso, and Warhol are neighbors. At the next Art Afterwork, the Enzi is sure to quickly become a popular gathering spot and photo opportunity.
