Altes Palmenhaus, Orangery at Schönbrunn Palace Park, Vienna, Austria
The Altes Palmenhaus stretches 111 meters in length, 28 meters in width, and reaches a height of 25 meters at the western edge of Schönbrunn Palace grounds.
Emperor Franz Joseph commissioned the construction of this greenhouse in 1882, which at that time stood as the largest structure of its type in existence.
The building houses three distinct climate zones, featuring Mediterranean plants in the center, tropical specimens in one wing, and temperature-sensitive flora in another section.
The Federal Gardens authority maintains numerous fruit trees, including banana, lychee, cacao, and papaya, alongside an extensive collection of carnivorous plants.
The tropical section contains a rare Lodoicea palm, known as Coco de Mer, and a Ravenala madagascariensis, commonly referred to as Traveler's Palm.
