A short guide about Hofburg Palace

Come and visit – The Hofburg Palace in Vienna, Austria; Europe’s weirdest palace. This “Court Castle” currently serves as the official residence of the President of Austria, but was the Imperial Palace for the Habsburgs for several centuries. It has housed some of the most powerful people in Austrian history, including the Habsburg dynasty, Emperors of the Holy Roman Empire, rulers of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, and was also the birthplace of Marie Antoinette in 1755.

The Hofburg Palace was developed piece by piece; dating back to the 13th century with the oldest foundations pre-dating the Habsburg dynasty, as they were probably laid by the late Babenberg dukes or King Ottokar Premysl of Bohemia. Its strange layout has no natural centre, which shows that it was re-modelled repeatedly. Featured on the 20 euro Renaissance commemorative coin, it shows the "Swiss Gate"; flanked by two soldiers that bear Ferdinand I's coat-of-arms and titles. This gigantic architectural design is a mix of both the Ringstrabe buildings and the madness of Austrian Imperialism.

Tourabout has travel partners that will take you on a sightseeing tour to visit the Hofburg Palace, once the seat of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, and view the Belvedere Palace, Prater amusement park, the UN buildings, St Stephen's Cathedral and other vivid reminders of the city's imperial history. Maybe in the evening you can enjoy a concert of Strauss’ and Mozart’s music.
