this site may contain automatically translated textThere are no pictorial sources or surviving descriptions of the gardens of the palatial complex in the Rossau quarter at the time that it was built. Later prints and paintings convey an impression of how it was arranged. On the site as preserved today – extending between the palace and the former Belvedere which was planned by Johann Bernhard Fischer von Erlach – was a garden divided into sixteen ‘compartiments’. The parterres are here recorded as being of equal size, and are identifiable as edged broderie beds.
