I bet the security staff at the museum would love that!
VIENNA, Austria (Reuters) -- Too hot in the city? How about a nice, cool museum exhibition of nudes, in the nude?
Vienna's Leopold Museum offered free entry on Friday to anybody who came in swim suits or naked, in response to a summer heat wave with temperatures in the 30s (90s Fahrenheit).
The museum said about 300 women and men in bikinis or bathing trunks, and 10 in their birthday suits, showed up as of midday to tour the exhibit "The Naked Truth" of nudes and other paintings that scandalised Vienna at the turn of the 20th century.
"The atmosphere is fun. The other visitors are amused and there have been no negative reactions," museum spokeswoman Verena Dahlitz said.
