A very well-maintained park; today I was lucky and was able to observe two free-roaming peacocks there.

The World's First Museum / The History of Ambras Castle Ambras Castle is located on the southern outskirts of Innsbruck, the Tyrolean capital. Records of Ambras date back to the 10th century, spelled "Amras" or "Omras." In the High Middle Ages, it was the seat of the Upper Bavarian Counts of Andechs. The property then passed into the possession of the Tyrolean sovereigns through inheritance. The medieval character of the castle is still clearly evident in the structure of the upper castle. In 1564, Ambras Castle became the residence of the Tyrolean sovereign, Archduke Ferdinand II, who moved there with his young family, his wife Philippine, and their two sons, Andreas and Karl. The so-called upper castle was converted and expanded into a residential building in the Renaissance style. The impressive Spanish Hall and extensive gardens were created below the residential building as new buildings.

Palace Park - Ambras Castle, Innsbruck During the lifetime of Archduke Ferdinand II, Ambras Castle included a large forest area. The grounds, which slope steeply to the east and today, with their cliffs, ravines, bridges, and an artificial waterfall, are reminiscent of their original state, served as a game park. The palace also boasted a richly landscaped park, completed in 1574, with fish ponds, bird aviaries, and private garden houses in the pleasure gardens. Remaining features from this period include the spacious Bacchus Grotto, carved into the rock, where the Archduke's guests were once welcomed with the famous Ambras drinking games, as well as a stair tower in the Keuchengarten, the former structure of which has been partially reconstructed. The hydroelectric "circulating table" and the ball game house south of the Spanish Hall are no longer preserved. Under Archduke Karl Ludwig, who used Ambras Castle as a summer residence, the western part of the park was transformed into a landscaped garden starting in 1855, and the Keuchengarten received a swimming pool.
