Landmarks in Austria – Catriona

Welcome to my blog. Today I will be talking about landmarks in Austria. The best spots to relax and have fun. Do you think you like Austria? Well anyway we had better get started.

So think about famous landmarks. Schönbrunn Palace is beautiful so… I think we should talk about it. It was the main summer house for the Habsburg rulers. Franz Joseph, the longest reining ruler was born there and died there too. St Stephen’s Cathedral is one of the top sights in Austria. It is a Roman Catholic Church in Vienna. The gothic form of the Cathedral was set up by Duke Rudolf IV. It also stands on the ruins of two other Churches. It has 256 stairs.

On to recommendations. I am going to be talking about Landskron Castle. It was purchased by the Habsburg Duke Albert II of Austria.

The Grüner See (Green Lake) is beautiful. It is surrounded by forests and mountains. The Schiederweiher is an artificial lake in Hinterstoder. It may be artificial but it’s very pretty!
