Perfect for families: Since 2023, you can chase the so-called "Fantastic Palastics" in the park. The Alpine Garden in the palace park is the oldest in Europe. The Kammergarten was originally reserved only for the man of the house and his closest associates. The large terraces with ponds connect the Upper to the Lower Belvedere. A reflecting pool was created in front of the place, in which the building's façade is reflected. The gardens of the Belvedere are a highlight of Baroque landscape architecture. Nowadays, medieval art can be marveled at in the sables where the prince's horses once stood. Special exhibitions are held in the Lower Belvedere and the Orangery. The lavish splendor of the owner is reflected in the Groteskensaal (Hall of the Grotesque), the Marble Gallery and the Golden Room. While the Upper Belvedere was all about representation, the Lower Belvedere acted as the residential palace of Prince Eugene. The show collection also looks in depth at the interactions between art and society. Around 400 works recount 800 years of art history. It includes Austrian highlights from the Middle Ages and Baroque, while the icons of Vienna Modernism meet greats like Claude Monet, Vincent van Gogh, and Auguste Rodin. On show is Austrian art in the context of the creative work of international artists of their time. The permanent exhibition was completely redesigned at the beginning of 2023: "Picture this! The Belvedere Collection from Cranach to EXPORT" extends throughout the entire palace in the wonderful Baroque ambience, and shows the highlights of the collection together with new additions and works from the holdings. Klimt's portraits of women also impress and be marveled at in the Upper Belvedere. "The Kiss" is probably Austria's most famous work of art. The 180 x 180 cm painting was created in 1908/09 and shows Klimt and his muse Emilie Flöge as a couple in love. Klimt's "The Kiss" in particular is world-famous. The heart of the Belvedere collection is formed by the 24 paintings of Gustav Klimt with his golden images "The Kiss" and "Judith". Upper Belvedere - World's biggest Klimt collection and "The Kiss" This baroque architectural jewel consists of two palaces (Upper and Lower Belvedere), which today house Austrian art from the Middle Ages to the present day. Prince Eugene of Savoy (1663-1736), successful general and art connoisseur, had Belvedere garden palace built by Johann Lukas von Hildebrandt as his summer residence – at the time it was still outside the gates of the city.
