Schonbrunn Palace began life as a hunting lodge during the 16th century. In 1683 the chateau de plaisance and its deer park became a victim of the invading Turkish armies during the siege of Vienna and from 1686 the estate was in the possession of Emperor Leopold I, who gave Schonbrunn Palace to his son and heir, Joseph.
