The Wagenburg is a museum of carriages and vehicles used by the imperial household of the Austrian Empire. It is housed in the grounds of the Schlosses Schönbrunn in the Hietzing district of Vienna and is a department of the Kunsthistorisches Museum. Its exhibits include the Imperialwagen. We unfortunately weren't able to get in at the time we visited as it was closed.

Highlights of the exhibition:

the gilded “Imperial Carriage,”
the Golden Carousel Carriage of Maria Theresia,
the Child’s Phaeton of Napoleon’s son,
the Black Hearse of the Viennese court,
the personal Landaulet of Empress Elisabeth and
the only preserved Court Automobile of 1914.

Sailing at the Danube
Sailing calmly at the Danube.

Two of the things the kids and I planned to do for so many years now is to cruise around the Danube and go boating. The latter we did some time ago. It was a bit cold but we went biking and afterwards boating at Vienna's Old Danube...that's a section of the Danube for boating and surfing. We've cruised too before, but that was...5 years ago. :/

For this summer, we plan to go cruise at the other side of the Danube...it could be a cruise going to Bratislava, the nearest city from Vienna...I anyway have discount tickets from the city's transportation office for buying the yearly ticket. teehee. However, my daughter's class is going this week too! :D I'd probably just tag along and use my discount ticket!

Anyway, cruising is a really fun experience. A cruise around Spain or along the Italian coast or perhaps a Galapagos Cruise will truly be appreciated. Especially because the kids had watched the movie Nim's Island  and they saw how fun it is to be in such a place. The Spain and Italian trip cruise could not be far off so it's ok to set it later on, but a Galapagos trip, down South America is like a chance one shouldn't let go. Galapagos is a natural paradise, an archipelago full of beautiful scenery being a biological marine reserve, it's a sure-to-go to for those looking for adventure and a grand vacation.

Today's view of Vienna's skyline from the Gloriette. Seen is the back of the Schönrunn Palace, there's going to be a concert so it was a bit chaotic today...

Below is the Gloriette, would love to go up the top again this summer!

About Me


(^By Notting Hill Gate)

I enjoy both travel and photography. Although I haven’t been all-over the world, I try to document my journey and share it around. Here, my current hometown Vienna, a city I come to love not just for its intrinsic beauty but its overall aura of good vibes, I share bits and pieces of what to see and enjoy. -Marie Gizelle
