Day3 - Schonnbrunn castle
This morning we went to Schonnbrunn castle the home of the king of Austria up until the last century, when the last king of the period went into excite rather than leave the title. The castle was purchased and restored for public exhibition. Franz josef and his wife had 16 children with only 11 surviving childhood, one of which was Marie Antoinette. All their daughters were married off for political alliances and the sons were to future rulers.
