The Belvedere Palace in Vienna is one of Austria’s most iconic landmarks, renowned for its Baroque architecture, maintained palace gardens, and, most famously, its world-class art collection—including Gustav Klimt’s The Kiss. To truly get the next experience, nothing like a local expert to break down the art, history, and culture of it all. Here’s why a Belvedere guided tour can be one of the most enriching ways to explore the palace and its treasures.
