Review & FAQ:

The Mirabell Palace and Gardens is a beautiful baroque palace surrounded by exquisitely manicured gardens that has been designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site and is one of Salzburg’s top tourist attractions. The Mirabell Palace was built in 1606 by Prince-Archbishop Wolf Dietrich von Raitenau to impress his beloved mistress and named after a compilation of the Italian words ‘Mirabile’ (admirable) and ‘Bella’ (beautiful). Notable features of the palace include the magnificent Marble Hall, a grand banquet hall of the prince-archbishops with stunning stucco work and angel statues, and the Donnerstiege (staircase of thunder) lined with paintings and sculptures. The gardens geometrically arranged and beautifully manicured and a sight to behold.
