About
Schönbrunn Palace Park lies in Vienna, Austria, at Schönbrunner Schloßstraße 47 in the city's 13th district. Its historic baroque gardens are laid out in a formal style, with geometric lines, clipped greenery and open vistas that reward slow walking.
What to expect
- Formal landscaping that gives the grounds a sense of order and symmetry.
- Walking paths that lead through the expansive grounds at your own pace.
- The Gloriette, the monument that is one of the park's best-known landmarks.
- Green space that offers a quiet break in the middle of Austria's capital.
Why visit
The park suits a relaxed visit rather than a rushed one. Allow time to wander the paths, take in the views across the grounds and pause at the Gloriette. Because the gardens are large, they also work well for an unhurried walk, a picnic-style break or a stroll between other stops in the city.
Schönbrunn Palace Park is a good choice for anyone interested in baroque garden design, for visitors who want open air and calm after time in Vienna's museums and streets, and for those who enjoy historic landscapes shaped with care.
