Where in Vienna?
Ostensibly off the Beaten Path


Has Captain Nemo jumped ship
or is he simply taking a break?


Contemporary drawings or centuries old ones?
I don't have the answer, but know where I found them!

Franz Ferdinand von Trotta would have immediately known
which vanishing world this building belonged to

Any guesses?

  2. Those arched windows in alternating sizes are somehow a little disturbing to my eye. Odd.

  3. Lovly colours..but intriguing. Von Trotta...would recognise The Kaupzinergruft, The Emporer's tomb, or anything from his little place in Slovenia.
    I like a puzzle and will come back for the "reveal" answer!
    Is Captain Nemo a clue I wonder?

  6. Good evening!
    Schloss Laxenburg it is not.
    All three can be seen without paying an entrance fee.
