Lower Belvedere

4.4 / 5 (7 reviews)

The Belvedere is a World Heritage Site, a Baroque jewel and the site of the Austrian State Treaty. One of the oldest museums in the world and at the same time a venue for contemporary art.

The unique overall ensemble with the two palaces Upper and Lower Belvedere and the extensive garden is one of the most beautiful baroque buildings in the world. In the 18th century, the Austrian general Prince Eugene of Savoy commissioned the distinguished Baroque architect Johann Lucas von Hildebrandt to build a summer residence. Maria Theresa acquired the entire complex after Prince Eugene's death and made the Upper Belvedere the exhibition site of the imperial collections - and thus one of the first public museums in the world.

The Lower Belvedere, originally Prince Eugene's residence, is home to glittering exhibitions. The modern pavilion of the Belvedere 21 by architect K

With around 65,000 drawings and more than a million old master prints, the Albertina is a mightily impressive collection of art. Located in the largest Habsburg residential palace, the collection also includes more modern works - including two significant collections of Impressionist and early 20th-century art, and temporary exhibitions. Also on display are 21 exquisite Habsburg state rooms, spread over two floors of the palace.

The Belvedere Palace is in fact two palaces: the Upper and Lower, both of which were built by Prince Eugene of Savoy. These Habsburg palaces are the centerpieces of gorgeously landscaped gardens, with tiered fountains and statues nestled in the greenery. Both palaces are filled with priceless art in the permanent collections (including Gustav Klimt's The Kiss), as well as changing exhibitions.

The world-famous Spanish Riding School is the training ground for riders and their Lipizzan horses - Europe's oldest breed of horse. It's located between Michaelerplatz and Josefsplatz inside the Hofburg, in central Vienna. The 'Spanish' in the title refers to the Spanish heritage of the horses. This beautiful building has been an equestrian training center for more than 450 years. Guests can enter and watch these amazing horses learn the ropes and reins, in preparation for their performances in the Winter Riding School (Winterreitschule) in the Hofburg.
