"Situated in the middle of the woods on Schönbrunn Hill near the Maria Theresa Gate lies the Small Gloriette, a tower-like two storeyed pavilion which was built around 1775, probably to designs by Isidor Canevale."

  1. ooo, not seen this one before in the palais grounds. Interesting. B and W suits the isolation of the small tower.
    Kein melange hier?

    1. Hello! :-)
      You'd have to hike up to the Gloriette, then walk southeast (it's right near the Maria-Theresia-Gate).
      Nein, keine Melange there. ;-) There is a hot dog stand right outside the gate, maybe they have coffee too.

    1. Yes, it's an interesting observation! Not what one expects from Baroque or Rococo design.
