Description

Schönbrunn (Vienna) palace and gardens map
This map shows buildings of major public interest, garden partions, alleys and the main entrances used by visitors, but omits smaller objects like monuments and paths. It was created by mergeing officially available maps, mainly Google, as well as satellite photographs. The darkest and grey shades mark areas of restricted or no public access. The brightest green shades mark "parterre" arrangements, and a medium darker green was used for areas which were converted into "English style" garden, like the Botanical Gardens (20), mainly in 1830-1848. Brown shades mark areas where a fee is requested for access. The darker brown marks part of the "Tirolean Garden" which now belongs to the zoo.

As of now, the characters and numbers mean the following:

  • I – Haupteingang - Main entrance, the official's way to arrive. Would be used if you'd arrive by tourist bus.
  • E – Besuchereingang für Schlossbesichtigung - Visitor's entrance to Imperial rooms.
  • M – Meidlinger Tor (gate), as accessed by underground U4 station Schönbrunn.
  • T – Maria Theresia Tor (rather used by locals only)
  • H – Hietzinger Tor, as accessed by underground U4 station Hietzing, which is the usual approach for visitors of the zoo or the palm house.
  • X – Maxingtor (rather used by locals only; not open every day)
  • Y – Tiroler Tor (rather used by locals only; not open every day)
  • Z – Zoo
