One of New York’s most stunning museums is about to open its doors again — just in time for a major milestone birthday.

Neue Galerie New York reopens its landmark Fifth Avenue home on October 1, following a summer-long closure for building upgrades. The museum has been renovating the historic Upper East Side mansion to improve sustainability and the overall visitor experience.

There’s one key detail to note: while the building reopens in October, art lovers will have to wait a little longer to reunite with Gustav Klimt and Egon Schiele. Café Sabarsky, the museum’s Viennese-style café, along with its bookstore and design shop, resumes regular hours on October 1. The galleries themselves reopen on November 12 with a special anniversary exhibition marking a quarter-century since Neue Galerie first opened in 2001.

The show brings back some of the museum’s most celebrated works, including pieces by Klimt and Schiele. Neue Galerie’s collection focuses on Austrian and German art from 1890 to 1940, spanning painting, sculpture, photography, works on paper and decorative arts. Beyond Klimt and Schiele, the holdings include works by Oskar Kokoschka, Max Beckmann, Otto Dix and members of the Bauhaus.

The building itself is nearly as much of a draw as the masterpieces inside. Neue Galerie occupies one of the few surviving Gilded Age mansions on Fifth Avenue, a limestone beauty at Fifth Avenue and East 86th Street completed in 1914. Designed by Carrère & Hastings — the firm behind the New York Public Library’s main branch — the mansion was modeled partly on Paris’s Place des Vosges.

Industrialist William Starr Miller originally commissioned the home, which was later occupied by socialite Mrs. Cornelius Vanderbilt III and then the YIVO Institute for Jewish Research. Ronald S. Lauder and art dealer Serge Sabarsky bought it in 1994 and turned it into Neue Galerie, with architect Annabelle Selldorf overseeing the restoration.

This fall, you can once again while away an afternoon pretending you’ve slipped into fin-de-siècle Vienna, Klimts and cake included. Just remember: Sachertorte returns October 1, and the art follows on November 12.
