A touch of Rome in Schönbrunn ⛲️ The Roman Ruin is more than just an architectural masterpiece.

👑As the Habsburgs held the title of Emperor of the Holy Roman Empire for centuries, regarding themselves as the legitimate successors to the Roman Empire, the building also reflects their dynastic claim.

Next time you visit Schönbrunn, be sure to take a look at the Roman Ruin, which is over 240 years old and was originally called the 'Ruin of Carthage'. Johann Ferdinand Hetzendorf Hohenberg created the Roman Ruin at Schönbrunn as an entirely new structure on the model of the Ancient Roman temple of Vespasian and Titus.

Schönbrunn Palace is so much more than a tourist attraction🔍️Day in, day out, a great deal of restoration and conservation work takes place at Schönbrunn, while research into the history of the House of Habsburg continues.

✨️ As one of Austria's most important cultural treasures, we take our responsibility for preserving this World Heritage Site for future generations very seriously.

So, the next time you walk through a room undergoing restoration or notice scaffolding, remember the work that goes on behind the scenes to preserve this remarkable World Heritage Site.

🌈 💡 It is now believed that some members of the Habsburg family were q***r, even though the term did not exist at the time. Click through to learn more >>

ℹ️Until 1787 homosexuality was punishable by death in the Habsburg lands and it was not decriminalised in Austria until 1971. For both legal and social reasons, q***r people kept their love lives hidden. There are very few documents, diaries, letters or similar materials that explicitly address q***rness. Instead, it can be inferred from life circumstances, accounts by contemporary witnesses, or cryptic phrases handed down through the generations.

Can you imagine how much history this magnificent fountain from the 18th century has seen in its more than 240 years?

⛲️ Take a closer look at some beautiful details of the Neptune Fountain and enjoy the spectacular view of Schönbrunn Palace and the Great Parterre.

🔱 This architectural masterpiece was designed as the crowning element of the Great Parterre. At the centre of the figural group stands Neptune, with his trident. To his left is a nymph and to his right the sea goddess Thetis. At the foot of the grotto we see the Tritons, creatures that are part man and part fish, with their hippocampi or sea horses.
