Upper palace is amazing, staff are helpful and polite. Well worth the visit. Fabulous architecture. The ceilings inside are gorgeous ( big fan of looking up). Paintings galore and some fab sculpture. Spent hours there. Dont bother with the lower palace. Some of the staff are outright rude and frankly theres not much to see. One corridor of paintings, 2 rooms and some medieval art in the stables. Thats all. Not worth the entry fee or the walk, but must say the fountains en route are lovely so the walk wasnt a total loss.

Great art, Van Gogh, Monet, Klingt. Marble room, the chapel. Just lovely. I encourage to get the Audioguides as well. Very interesting info. Two tips: near the shop there is just one BATHROOM but if you go down the stairs you find many and more spacious. It is not so clearly displayed, just ask. Also, in the lockers, remember to get your euro coin back. You need a coin to use the locker but when you return the key, you get the coin back.

Absolutely must-visit art gallery, beautiful complex and garden. I purchased the ticket for the upper fine view. The only downside was that it seemed from the ticket that the audio guide was included, instead once you got there they were to be purchased separately for a cost of 5 euros each. I recommend that you take them to better benefit from the visit.

    The palace and grounds were amazing. Loved all of the art but especially went for the Klimt pieces. Crowds definitely not as bad as Schönbrunn. All in all, a great visit.

  • Explore 800 years of art and Baroque beauty across two iconic palaces.

    Getting started

    Enter either the Upper or Lower Belvedere Palace with your combo ticket. Both are part of a UNESCO-listed complex known for its grand design, landscaped gardens, and historic significance—including the signing of the Austrian State Treaty.

    Upper Belvedere Palace

    Built as a summer residence for Prince Eugene of Savoy in the 18th century, the Upper Belvedere was later transformed by Empress Maria Theresa into one of the world’s first public museums. Today, it houses an outstanding art collection across centuries and movements.

    • Gustav Klimt’s The Kiss: See one of Austria’s most iconic paintings, part of the largest Klimt collection in the world.

    • European masters: Admire works by Schiele, Monet, Rodin, and Van Gogh, along with pieces from the Baroque and Biedermeier periods.

    • Architectural splendor: Wander through frescoed ceilings, marble staircases, and ornate salons that reflect Viennese grandeur.

    Lower Belvedere Palace

    Once Prince Eugene’s main residence, the Lower Belvedere blends stately living with artistic legacy. Today, it hosts rotating exhibitions in a series of richly decorated rooms.

    • The Hall of Grotesques: Discover playful 18th-century ceiling and wall paintings preserved in their original form.

    • The Marble Gallery: See stucco war trophies celebrating Prince Eugene’s military victories.

    • The Gold Cabinet: Marvel at golden walls and mirrored panels, intact since 1765.

    • Palace Stables: Explore rare Medieval artworks on display in a former royal stable.
