Vor dem Ersten Weltkrieg und dem daran anschließenden Zerfall der Habsburgermonarchie kommt es zu einer bedeutenden Blütezeit in der Architektur, Musik, Malerei, Philosophie und Literatur.

Die drei herausragendsten und international bekannten Maler der Wiener Moderne sind Gustav Klimt, Oskar Kokoschka und Egon Schiele. Die Architektur wird von Otto Wagner und Adolf Loos geprägt. Das Wien um die Jahrhundertwende ist die Zeit der ‚Wiener Moderne‘, von etwa 1890 bis 1910, hat 1900 über 2 Millionen Einwohner und ist ein Schmelztiegel der mitteleuropäischen Kulturen.
