An obelisk covered in hieroglyphs in the middle of Vienna, a sea god at the foot of the Gloriette, and a palace forecourt built for imperial spectacle: Schönbrunn Palace Park is more than a pretty backdrop. On this riddle tour you'll explore the grounds at your own pace — from the palace forecourt past the Neptune Fountain to the Obelisk Fountain in the quiet eastern corner of the park. At 10 stops, riddles await that can only be solved on site: figures, inscriptions and details that thousands of people walk past every day without a closer look. No guidebook or prior knowledge required, just keep your eyes open. All riddles can be solved from the outside — the park is free to enter, no admission tickets needed.
