Museum of the New Palace

Michaelerkuppel, Hofburg, 1010 Wien, Austria

Description:

Previously, on the site of the Neue Burg Museum, about seven centuries, there was a representative office of the Habsburgs (until 1918). The castle, which amazes with its size and beauty (about 19 courtyards, up to 60 stairs leading to various parts of the house, and about 2650 rooms), was built at different times and by different architects, in parts. Each architect in the construction of the palace adhered to its own style and symmetry, due to the fact that the construction was carried out in different eras and centuries.

The new Palace, which was built in 1881-1914, is the shape of an incomplete moon, with located inside the Heroes' Square with sculptures of Carl Ludwig and the commander of the Holy Roman Empire, Generalissimo Eugene of Savoy.
