Informations supplémentaires:
Schönbrunn Palace (German: Schloss Schönbrunn) is a royal residence in Vienna, Austria. Emperor Leopold I gave architect Johann Bernhard Fischer von Erlach the order to design a new palace. Construction began in 1696 and after three years the first festivities were held in the newly built middle part of the palace. Maria Theresa of Austria to whom the estate was made as a present by her father (who, himself, had shown but little interest in it) had decided to make it the imperial summer residence, after she was crowned. She ordered her architect-of-the-court Nicolò Pacassi to reshape the palace and garden in a way of the style of the Rococo era. It was completed in the mid 18th century.
