    Hofburg Palace

    ViennaAustria1279

    Located in the heart of Vienna, the Hofburg Palace served as the formidable winter residence of the Habsburg dynasty for over six centuries. Spanning over 59 acres with 18 wings and 2,600 rooms, this sprawling imperial complex is steeped in imperial tragedy, political intrigue, and supernatural lore. Most famous among its spectral inhabitants is the 'White Lady' (Weiße Frau), an omen ghost whose appearance historically heralded the imminent death of a member of the Habsburg royal house.

    Schönbrunn Palace

    Schönbrunn Palace, the magnificent 1,441-room Baroque summer residence of the Habsburg monarchs in Vienna, is one of Austria's most iconic UNESCO World Heritage sites. Beyond its gilded state rooms and manicured gardens lies a rich history of royal heartbreak, tragic deaths, and spectral lingering. Visitors and staff report encounters with the ghost of Napoleon's tragic son Napoleon II (the Duke of Reichstadt), phantom footsteps in the Great Gallery, and mysterious cold spots near the private apartments of Empress Elisabeth.
