The Belvedere is a historic building complex and art museum in Vienna. The complex consists of two Baroque palaces, the Upper and Lower Belvedere, together with the Orangery, the Palace Stables, and a formal Baroque garden. The Belvedere’s garden is one of Europe’s most significant historical gardens in French style and, even in its pared down form today, is still a fine example of late Baroque garden design. The gardens feature 12 monumental Baroque sphinx statues created in the early 18th century. They are symbols of strength and intelligence.
