Om
Raske fakta: Marble corridors echo with the clip-clop of stallions from the Spanish Riding School, and visitors often spot tiny inscriptions left by centuries of court servants. Surprisingly, the complex contains over 2,000 rooms and a museum with imperial silver that dazzles under low, golden light.
Høydepunkter: Walk through over 2,600 rooms and 18 courtyards, where layers of Gothic, Renaissance and Baroque architecture press up against one another and frescoed ceilings drip gold leaf while imperial portraits follow you from corridor to corridor. Down in the imperial stables you can glimpse Lipizzaner foals born dark that slowly lighten to snowy gray by about age six, while riders practice the haute école’s pirouettes and caprioles that make the horses seem to dance on their hind legs.
Insidertips
- Wear comfortable shoes, the rooms are spread over several floors and involve a lot of walking.
- Head to Michaelerplatz and the Swiss Wing courtyard for the best exterior photos of the palace facade.
- If short on time, prioritize the Imperial Apartments and the Sisi Museum and skip the Silver Collection.
- Buy a timed-entry ticket or arrive at opening to avoid the largest tour groups and school visits.
