Part of this redesign was the creation of a private garden or park for the Imperial family, long known as the Kaisergarten. The area was extended in 1863, then reduced again a few decades later to create space for the Neue Burg palace extension. It was renamed the Burggarten in 1919, given the change from monarchy to republic after WWI. It’s surrounded by the Ring boulevard, the Neue Burg, the butterfly house and palm house, and Goethegasse (a street named after the famous German footballer writer). The park offers pleasant views of its historical surrounds, a shortcut to the Albertina museum (out the main gate to the northeast), a little respite from sightseeing crowds, and four monuments and statues, which you can see in the slideshow below: The Mozart monument (completed in 1896 and moved to the Burggarten in 1953) Hercules and the Nemean lion (created around the turn of the 19th century and incorporated into a small fountain feature in the Burggarten pond in 1948) Emperor Franz Joseph (from 1903 and moved here in 1957) Franz I – husband of Empress Maria Theresia – on his horse (from 1781 and moved here in 1819)

(Locatie) Parc-ul se afla langa destule statii de metrou. Exista multe autobuze in zona cu care poti ajunge, dar si tramvaie. Parcul este destul de central, foarte bun pentru oamenii din zona si nu numai. La cateva minute de Centru vechi. Sunt special locatii pentru bicicleta sau usor de ajuns cu transportul in comun. (Curat) In parc este foarte curat. Primaria se ocupa de curatenie. Nu am vazut oameni care nu pastreaza locul curat si sa ii mai vezi ca arunca tot felul de ambalaje, sau ca n ar curata dupa cainii lor. Nu exista cişmele din care poti sa bei apa, eu cel putin, nu am vazut. (Dimensiune) Parcul are dimensiunii medii, nu foarte mare, nici foarte mic. In interior diverse drumuri si locuri verzi in care poti sa stai, de asemenea si bancute, special pentru conexiunea cu ceilalti. (Mancare) Nu sunt nici un fel de tarabe in parc, nu exista loc in care poti sa stai sa mananci sau sa bei, asta cand am fost eu, ceea ce e bine, ai daca doresti fix langa parc. (Locuri de joaca) Nu am vazut o zona special amenjata pentru locuri de joaca pentru copii mici. De asemenea, nici terenuri de sport sau zone in care te poti juca, poti sa te joci pe iarba, dar nimic special amenajat, nu erau foarte multi copii in parc, dar eu am fost la prima ora de dimineata.. (Biciclete) Un parc ok de a te plimba cu bicicletele. Nu e foarte mare, dar poti sa il tranzitezi usor. Drumurile sunt largute, nu sunt piste speciale pentru biciclete, dar nu ai nevoie. Sunt si locuri de unde sa poti inchiria biciclete. (Alergare) Spatiul este ok. Nu e foarte mare cum am zis, dar te poti invartii bine in el, nu ai un traseu predefinit, iti alegi tu cum sa l faci. Sunt multi copaci, umbra, ceea ce te va ajuta, sunt si spatii deschise si nu e foarte intortocheat, mic lac, briza placuta, este numai bine. (Caini) In schimb, poti sa-ti plimbi cainele lejer, nu sunt si locuri speciale unde ii poti da drumul liber si sa se joace acolo, cel putin du nu am vazut, dar s-ar putea sa ma insel. Dar poti doar sa-l plimbi pur si simplu prin parc, pe iarba, e foarte bine. (Citit) Sunt destul de multe bancute, si nefiind copii mici, asa multi, poti sta linistit sa citesti acolo. (Diverse) Ai si un mic lac, nu ai locuri din care sa poti sa bei apa, in schimb exista locuri in care poti sa ti pui paturica si sa stai la iarba verde sau sa joci un badminton. Sunt foarte multi care vin si stau pe iarba si socializeaza. De asemenea, pe langa sunt destule atractii turistice. (Noapte) Noaptea este destul de luminos. Mai peste tot in parc ai destula vizibilitate, deci nu trebuie sa-ti fie frica.

Originally the private garden for the Hapsburgs, Burggarten was opened to the public in 1919 and is a nice place to find a bit of green space next to the Palace in Vienna. Park opening hours are 7am to 5.30pm during winter months and 6am to 8pm during the warmer months of the year. We recently visited during early March and found the park, like others within the Innere Stadt under a thin layer of snow. This made for interesting monument viewing. In addition to seeing statues of the likes of Emperor Franz Joseph and Mozart, you will also find the impressive Palmenhaus (Palm House) here at Burggarten. You can take in a visit to Burggarten before or after seeing the Hapburg Palace and Museums. Park gates are found at the back of Albertina as well as along the Ringstrasse.

Key highlights include a statue of **Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart**, the **Palm House** (Palmenhaus), a stunning greenhouse filled with exotic plants, and a charming café. The park also offers lovely views of the surrounding historic buildings, providing a tranquil escape from the bustling city. Burggarten is a popular destination for both locals and tourists, ideal for enjoying nature and cultural heritage.

An absolutely gorgeous garden! The best time to visit is spring - there is a huge white magnolia blooming in March and later on from the second-third week of April is the time when gorgeous, huge peony bushes bloom. You can see the blooms on my pics below. On another note, some sights to see in Burggarten is the Mozart monument, the Butterfly House and the Palmenhouse brasserie/bar. Palmenhouse and the Butterfly house are located in Kaiser's former green house, art nouveau style and both are gorgeous. At Palmenhouse, you can try some local Austrian specialities, or simply have a drink.
