新博物館開咗

前日維也納有個新博物館開咗, Winterpalais des Prinzen Eugen von Savoyen. 係Prince Eugen of Savoy個冬宮. 正正喺市中心.

呢度之前係奧地利經濟部嘅office. 佢哋遷出後, 用咗255 million euro 維修.

第一個專題展係Prince Eugen 350年.

 Marking the 350th birthday of Prince Eugene of Savoy, the opening exhibition at the Winter Palace, an internationally acclaimed Baroque landmark, focuses on the cosmopolitan’s biography, the architectural history of the palace, and the military achievements of its former owner. Selected objects from various genres blend in with and enhance the existing structure of the staterooms. While the show illustrates Prince Eugene’s personal career and family background, the section on the building’s history sheds light on the original appearance of the palace’s interior. *copied from official website

開幕首三日免費開放. 我當然要去啦. 之後要9歐入場架!!

Originally built as a lavish stately residence for Prince Eugene of Savoy, then acquired in the eighteenth century by Empress Maria Theresa before being used for the Court Treasury and later as the Ministry of Finance, this Baroque jewel in downtown Vienna has finally been restored to a centre of art and culture  *copied from official website

1714年欧根在皇帝赐给他的维也纳的第三区土地上建造巴洛克式宫殿──美景宫(Belvedere Palace)，建筑各个部分的宫殿持续到1723年。欧根从未结婚，他很可能是独身一生。欧根亲王死後，他的侄女沉溺於赌博，不得不把这些宫殿变卖。www.wikipedia.org
