Johann Wenzel Bergl created rooms with fantastic illusionistic landscapes by order of Maria Theresa not only in Schönbrunn but also in the Vienna Hofburg. These originated around 1766. During Sisi’s time, the rooms were repurposed as a cloakroom. The rooms have been preserved to this day and are unique in their kind in Europe. Pro tip: Please don’t forget to get your time slot tickets for the Sisi museum and the imperial apartments online in advance to avoid long waiting times on site.
