Frommer's Review

The latest attraction at Hofburg Palace is this museum near the stables of the famous white stallions. This permanent exhibition begins with the historic inception of the Spanish Riding School in the 16th century and extends to the stallions' near destruction in the closing weeks of World War II. Paintings, historic engravings, drawings, photographs, uniforms, bridles, and video and film presentations bring to life the history of the Spanish Riding School, offering an insight into the breeding and training of the champion horses. Visitors to the museum are also able to see through a window into the stallions' stables while they are being fed and saddled.
