Our Publications

The Park and Gardens at Schönbrunn, Baroque Garden Design

This richly illustrated guide to Schönbrunn Palace Park presents the buildings and park grounds and tells the story of their history and creation.

Schönbrunn Palace and its park form an inseparable ensemble. Although the grounds were sketched out by Johann Bernhard Fischer von Erlach, the garden design can be traced back to Jean Trehet, a pupil of André Le Nôtre. The "Parterre" was extended under Maria Theresa, with Emperor Franz I Stephan in particular taking care of the redesign of the grounds and also having the zoo and the "Dutch Botanical Garden" established. In 1779, the park was opened to the public by Emperor Joseph II - much to the displeasure of the court nobility - and has since been an important recreational area for the Viennese population, which can now also be enjoyed in book form.

Not only the highlights, such as the "Great Parterre", the Neptune Fountain, the Maze, the Gloriette, the "Beautiful Fountain", the Roman ruins and the Great Palm House, are presented, but garden secrets and unknowns are also revealed.

Overview and site plans, such as for sculptures and monuments, as well as a historical overview and a chronological table round off this elegant guide, which invites not only tourists to read, track down and linger in.
