Schönbrunn Palm House

The Schönbrunn Palm House was constructed in 1882. With a length of 113m, a 28m high central pavilion and two lateral pavilions, it is the largest Palm House in Europe.

Emperor Franz Joseph I commissioned the construction of the Palm House in 1882. With a length of 113m, a 28m high central pavilion and two lateral pavilions, it is the largest Palm House on the European continent. I took this photo more than two weeks ago when Vienna was under a thin blanket of snow.

Behind The Trees

Here´s another photo I took last Saturday in the Burggarten. Behind the trees you can see the Jugendstil palm house (which houses a restaurant and the Butterfly House) and the spire of the Augustinian Church.
