Art Tour of the Belvedere Palace Complex

The Belvedere is a majestic palace complex of international importance. The Belvedere is a masterpiece of Baroque architecture, an exhibition hall for a valuable collection of paintings and a historic park.

Most of the historic buildings are now used for art exhibitions (permanent and temporary) and we will take a closer look at all of them.

During this art tour we will take into account the architecture, the art collection and the park. However we will pay special attention to the collection of the National Gallery in the Upper Belvedere, which includes paintings by iconic Austrian painters such as Gustav Klimt and Egon Schiele, as well as its collection of works by Medieval and Baroque artists.

Throughout this art tour we will try to immerse ourselves in the atmosphere that has been carefully preserved here and to understand the connection between that time and our own.

Bear in mind that the Belvedere is a summer residence and in the winter season, when the fountains are turned off and the trees are sheltered from the weather, we will pay more attention to the art collection.
