Since 1854, access to Mirabell Park has been open to everyone. The decree allowing free visits of citizens was signed by Emperor Franz Josef. At present, the Mirabell Palace and its park are not only a cultural and historical value, but also the place of work of the municipality and the Salzburg burgomaster. Mirabell Palace and Gardens is a real monument of love. Prince-Archbishop Wolf Dietrich von Reitenau presented it to the lady of his heart, Solomeya Alt. The beautiful beloved gave birth to 15 children to the archbishop, so the gift was worth it.

Didn't make an impression at all. Lots of greens. Sculptures are some kind of gloomy fountain quite unpretentious. Dwarfs generally make me sad with their scary faces. Totally expected something else. I didn't even want to take pictures. Didn't get it at all : (

The history of the Mirabell Park is connected with a rather spicy love story. So, there lived the Archbishop of Salzburg, Wolf Reitenau. And although he was a person of the church, and according to the church rules of that time, it was not supposed to have beloved women, the archbishop was, it seems, above the laws. In 1606, on his orders, a luxurious palace was built as a gift to the lady of the heart, Solomeya. And the beauty, who was deeply moved, in a fit of gratitude, gives birth to 15 (!!! ) children to the archbishop.
