The former summer residence of the Archbishop Marcus Zittikusa is 6 km from Salzburg. Hellbrunn Palace was built in 1613-1615 under the project S.Solari.
Marcus Zittikus most of his life in Italy, so the palace Hellbrunn resembles a Venetian villa. Of particular interest are the octagonal music room and a room with wall and ceiling paintings created by a monk Arseny Mascagni.
Palace Park was created in the style of Mannerism. Here, everywhere picturesque ponds and mysterious grottoes, fontany- "cracker" and a figure of stone monsters. Excellent mechanical theater (mid XVIII century) with 256 figures shows life in a small town.
In a small hunting lodge in 1924 the Ethnographic Museum. And on the basis of the Deer Park in 1961 it was created by the Salzburg Zoo.
