Vienna's Globe Museum reveals the world in 220 antique spheres

A visit to Vienna's Globe Museum—the world's only public museum dedicated to globes—shows 220+ rare pre-1850 spheres that map how people imagined the Earth and the heavens, from Behaim's 1492 globe to lunar globes and colonial-era depictions, highlighting both imagination and bias, with a forthcoming exhibition on globes in everyday life.
