The Gloriette and Garden at the Schoenbrunn Palace
The chapter “Kings and Queens of Austria” tells you about the rulers of Austria. First the Babenberger dukes (976 to 1246) and then the legendary House of Habsburg who ruled the country from 1278 to 1918. You find stories and legends told about Empress Maria Theresia, Emperor Josef II, and Emperor Franz Josef I and his wife, Empress Elisabeth (lovingly called Sissi by her admirers). In the following you can read a legend told about Emperor Joseph II.
