Schloss Ambras Castle Park, Innsbruck
Highlight • Historical Site
During the lifetime of Archduke Ferdinand II, Ambras Castle included a large forest area.
The grounds, which slope steeply to the east and today, with their cliffs, ravines, bridges, and an artificial waterfall, are reminiscent of their original state, served as a game park. The palace also boasted a richly landscaped park, completed in 1574, with fish ponds, bird aviaries, and private garden houses in the pleasure gardens.
Remaining features from this period include the spacious Bacchus Grotto, carved into the rock, where the Archduke's guests were once welcomed with the famous Ambras drinking games, as well as a stair tower in the Keuchengarten, the former structure of which has been partially reconstructed.
The hydroelectric "circulating table" and the ball game house south of the Spanish Hall are no longer preserved. Under Archduke Karl Ludwig, who used Ambras Castle as a summer residence, the western part of the park was transformed into a landscaped garden starting in 1855, and the Keuchengarten received a swimming pool.
