Lower Belvedere Tickets

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, but Sisi Elisabeth never lived there.

After Empresses Maria Theresia purchased the palace, it was immediately dedicated to showcase the extended imperial art collection.
