Welcome To Austria

Belvedere

The Belvedere in Vienna’s third district (just near the Südbahnhof and the Schwarzenbergplatz) was originally built as the summer palace of Prince Eugen von Savoyen, a famous and successful military leader in the eighteenth century. Designed by Austrian baroque architect Lukas von Hildebrandt it is worth a visit just due to its architectural style. However, its museum is also show casting the world’s largest Gustav Klimt collection together with an array of other famous Austrian artists like Egon Schiele and Oskar Kokoschka.
