Schloss Hellbrunn is Austria's best example of the Italian baroque style. It was built (1613–19) for Marcus Sitticus von Hohenems, the Prince-Archbishop of Salzburg as a summer residence.
It stands in large park famous for its jeux d'eaux (watergames), a neighbouring zoo, an amphitheatre and a small building known as the Monatschlössl, which houses the ethnographical section of the Carolina Augusteum Museum of Salzburg.
