The palace and gardens were built as the summer residence of Prince Eugene of Savoy, the military commander that helped defeat the Turks in the 17th century. The complex consists of two palaces, the Upper and Lower Belvedere, linked by a three-tiered formal French garden. The Upper palace is the more elaborate of the two and is used for festive occasions. The Lower palace served as the Prince's living quarters. Both are highly decorated and houses works by world-renowned artists.
