Schönbrunn Palace, Vienna

Schönbrunn Palace, Vienna.

“The sculpted garden space between the palace and the Neptune Fountain is called the Great Parterre. In 1695, Jean Trehet, a disciple of André Le Nôtre, planned the French garden, which contains a maze. The complex includes many noteworthy staple luxuries of European palaces of the time, including the Tiergarten, an orangerie erected around 1755 and a palm house (replacing, by 1882, around ten earlier and smaller glass houses in the western part of the park). Western parts were turned into English garden style in 1828–1852.”
