If the Sch\u00f6nbrunn Palm House, Vienna, lacks the elegance of Alphonse Balat’s beautiful Winter Garden in Brussels, the structure does have a distinct style of its own. Roberto Verzo’s Flickr views<\/a> manage to hide the visitors and background details, giving the impression that the building might be larger than it is. Much as I’d love these places to have a Piranesian grandeur \u00e0 la<\/em> Schuiten the reality is somewhat diminished. The Palm House was built in the 1880s from a design by Franz Xaver Segenschmids, and is another royal palace adjunct. According to the Sch\u00f6nbrunn palace website<\/a> this one is more visitor-friendly than the Laeken greenhouses, being open to the public all year round.<\/p>\n
