Orangery in the Mirabell Gardens, Mirabell Palace, Salzburg The Orangery in the Mirabell Gardens is more of an insider tip. It is located in the southern part of Mirabell Palace. The palm house was built around 1725 next to the large garden parterre. The name Orangery comes from the time when orange trees and exotic ornamental woods were still being cultivated. Precious, non-hardy plants were brought back to the Orangery to overwinter. Orange trees were seen as a metaphor for wealth in the Baroque period and for this reason were a must even then. The eastern part of the Orangery was used for other purposes after the Second World War and was not put back together again until 1980. The Baroque Museum is now located in the southern part of the Orangery. Today, in the northern part of the building, somewhat hidden, there is a small, beautiful tropical garden. A small pool with turtles and goldfish and for bird lovers there is a very large birdcage with numerous birds to marvel at. Opening hours of the Orangery in the Mirabell Gardens Open all year round, daily from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Text / Source: Salzburger Saalachtal. com https://www.salzburger-saalachtal.com/ausflugsziele/stadt-salzburg/mirabellgarten/orangerie-mirabellgarten

Mirabell Gardens & Mirabell Park (Mirabell Palace), Salzburg The world-famous Mirabell Gardens were laid out along a north-south axis and are oriented towards Salzburg Cathedral and Hohensalzburg Fortress. The original gardens were designed by Johann Bernhard Fischer von Erlach in 1689, commissioned by Prince-Archbishop Johann Ernst Count von Thun. In 1730, the gardens were significantly altered, with Franz Anton Danreiter responsible for the new plans. Even at this time, the "Mirabell Gardens" were known as one of the most beautiful parks in Europe. In the 19th century, the Mirabell Gardens underwent another major transformation, this time resulting in the destruction of parts of the garden. This included the original Dwarf Garden in its 18th-century form, some arcades facing Mirabellplatz, and the so-called Sala Terena northwest of Mirabell Palace. The "Grand Parterre" is not only the largest enclosed section of the Mirabell Gardens but is also one of its oldest parts. If you enter the Mirabell Gardens from the Market Square, you will encounter two pairs of Borghese swordsmen on the Grand Parterre. The inner pair is by A. Götzinger, the outer pair by M. B. Mandl; both pairs were created in the 17th century. Text / Source: TSG Tourismus Salzburg GmbH, Auerspergstraße 6, Salzburg https://visit-salzburg.net/deutsch/sehenswuerdig/mirabellgarten.htm

It's crazy how much water is pouring into the valley right in the middle of town.

Bad Gastein is actually a bit out of date and some of the buildings are empty. Big old hotels in an alpine area and yet somehow fascinating.

Beautiful to walk/run in good weather, when it rains the trails become small streams> slippery> sure-footedness required, walk with poles if possible

07/27/2023 - The garden is very nicely laid out and right now in summer the flowers are blooming beautifully. But it is worth a visit. The small covered area with turtles, birds and exotic plants is also nice.

The Oberburgau is located 30 kilometers east of the city of Salzburg. It is around 8 kilometers south-east of the town center of the Mondsee market on the southern shore of the Mondsee (481 m above sea level) on the narrow strip of shore at the northern foot of the Schafberg in the Salzkammergut mountains. A few meters from the Mondsee shoreline is the Kreuzstein (Mondsee), which no longer belongs to Oberburgau, but like the entire Mondsee to the market town of the same name and thus to the state of Upper Austria. Opposite rise the Mondsee Flyschberge with the Hochplett.
