This was the hunting villa/ castle of one of
the former Kaiser’s of Austria. His wife, Elizabeth, is very famous in history
here. She was a very progressive women,
she smoked, had a tattoo of an anchor, and worked out rigorously. She also was
very vain though and took a lot of pride
in her appearance. She had hair she never cut—it reached her ankles by the time
she died—and it would take 3 hours every
day for her to just brush the hair and one whole day every week to wash the
hair. Her servants had to hang it up by ropes to make it dry! She also was unhealthily
skinny—her waist sucked from 55cm to 48in with a corset. Women actually started
breaking there ribs to try and follow the fad she started.
The view if the villa through the trees.
