Vienna Hofburg - Imperial Apartments, Sisi Museum, Silver Collection

The apartments in the north end of the Amalia Wing (towards Ballhausplatz) were occupied by Tsar Alexander of Russia during the Congress of Vienna between 1814 and 1815, when all the sovereigns of Europe gathered in Vienna to redivide Europe following the defeat of Napoleon. When Empress Elisabeth occupied the Amalia Wing, these rooms were used for the empress’s private functions. Between 1916 and 1918, the last Austrian emperor, Karl 1, used this suite for his official rooms.www.hofburg-wien.at | Download Tour-Guide (PDF)© by Schloß Schönbrunn Kultur- und Betriebsges.m.b.H.
