+++ This Munzee is a white sticker without a green edge. +++ Palace park is closed at night. Opening hours: http://bit.ly/sfn61e +++ The Munzee is outside the park. +++ Situated in the middle of the woods on Schönbrunn Hill near the Maria Theresa Gate lies the Small Gloriette, a tower-like two storeyed pavilion which was built around 1775, probably to designs by Isidor Canevale. The octogonal structure with its balconies and built-on stairwell was probably used as a viewing pavilion. The interior is decorated with Rococo architectural murals which on the second floor open up above a balustrade into a painted sky. The pavilion is temporarily closed due to renovation works. +++
