Directions

A formal imperial garden tucked between the Burgtheater and the Kunsthistorisches Museum, famous for its extraordinary rose garden with over 3,000 rose bushes that bloom spectacularly in late May and June. The neoclassical Theseus Temple at its center is a genuine landmark worth seeking out. It gets crowded on sunny weekend afternoons, so a weekday morning visit is ideal for a peaceful stroll.
