The Swarovski Crystal Worlds (Swarovski Kristallwelten) is a museum, located in Wattens (Austria). The museum was built in 1995 in celebration of the 100th anniversary of the Austria based crystal company Swarovski.

History

The Swarovski company was founded by Daniel Swarovski in 1895. One hundred years later, multimedia artist Andre Heller was commissioned to design the museum with fourteen chambers throughout.[1] The museum is open year-round, and features a cafe as well as a park space surrounding the building.

The Crystal Worlds closed for an expansion that will nearly double the space. It is planned to reopen early summer 2015.[2]
