Art in the park of Hellbrunn

The historic palace garden at Hellbrunn is a place of recreation, a meeting place, a sports facility and a place of leisure. So today it is still exactly what Prince Archbishop Markus Sittikus had in mind when he planned it. Since the summer of 2018, Hellbrunn has presented itself as a sculpture park with annually changing art installations and so-called "Land Art".

tradition2go: between culture and madness

4 May to 23 June 2024

On the occasion of the 100th anniversary of the Folklore Museum in the Monatsschlössl, students from the Mozarteum will explore the contents and objects of the museum. They will bring their contemporary interpretations in the form of sculptures into the open air. The trail invites visitors to associatively search for connections between past and present. Legends, customs, identities, traditions... what do they have to do with us today?

Permanent tree reflection, Lindenallee

1,400 small mirrors placed in the meticulously pruned row of trees in the Lindenallee underline the idea of Hellbrunn as a place of magic and surprise. The little mirrors mark twigs and branches that have "fallen victim" to tree pruning and symbolise a new beginning. The visitor is presented with a constantly changing harmony of branches, leaves, the sun and the water on the small surfaces.
