Imperial Vienna played a huge role in the history of Europe and classical music. In what ways have you specifically noted this, and why has it impacted you in particular?
Why are ceremonious palaces and classical musicians from imperial Vienna well respected?
Schloss Schönbrunn embraces its magisterial former occupants even though they committed atrocious imperial actions.
Museums continue to celebrate classical music with imperial tones.
Although I understand the significance of imperial Vienna, its recognition in today’s world perplexes me.

| This picture was taken while I was touring Schloss Schönbrunn in Vienna, Austria. The palace is very well respected by Austria and this can be seen by the palace not allowing anyone to take pictures while touring the inside. I learned on the tour that the palace belonged to the Habsburg family/empire. The Habsburgs are an imperial family that used to rule a majority of Europe. |

| I took this picture while touring the Haydn Museum in Vienna, Austria. I learned on the tour that Haydn was very political in the sense that he supported imperial families/empires. In the picture, it's seen that Haydn wrote the Habsburg "Imperial Hymn" to influence Venetian society to remain imperial after Napoleon conquered the city. |
