The satellite view and the map shows the baroque styled Schönbrunn Palace, one of the most important cultural monuments in

Austria and nowadays one of the major tourist attractions in

Vienna, Austria's capital city.

The palace and gardens illustrate the tastes, interests, and aspirations of various Habsburg monarchs. Emperor Leopold I commissioned architect Johann Bernhard Fischer von Erlach to design a new palace that follows that of the Palace of Versailles. Construction began in 1696 and after three years the first festivities were held in the newly built middle part of the palace.

The Palace and Gardens of Schönbrunn

are since 1996 a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The Historic center of Vienna

is also a UNESCO World Heritage site.
