When we visited in August last year, the Museum of Applied Arts (MAK) in Vienna, Austria, had a very large room where lace of many types was displayed. There is an online collection: https://sammlung.mak.at/en/collection_online?&q=lace
Incidentally, "Anno O. alias Bertha Pappenheim, the first of Sigmund Freud's recorded “cases” to be treated with psychoanalytical discussion therapy, was not only a prominent Jewish women’s rights activist and protector of women in need, she was also known as a generous collector of lace and cast iron objects. A representative selection of these heterogeneous and yet linked objects which the collector both sold and donated to the MAK."

I would like to travel for a month ahead of the congress and am searching out lace sites in the countries on my list. I plan to visit Finland, Sweden, Norway, Denmark, Switzerland and Austria. However, I can't find any lace-related references in the travel guides I've been reading on these countries, not even in the museum listings.
