Salzburg - Hellbrunn - The Crown Magic

"Another attraction when strolling among the trick fountains is offered by
the Midas Grotto, or Crown Grotto, in the middle of which a bursting jet of water raises a crown, and according to the pressure, holds it almost
immovably at the desired height. Naturally, the observer will be startled again and again by water jets inside this grotto, which shoot from wall
niches. Access to this watery technical gem is made difficult by sudden gushes from the floor"

Hellbrunn Palace, built by Santino Solari under Prince Archbishop Markus Sittikus from 1612-1615 is, with its spacious park, trick fountains and mechanical theatre, one of the most beautiful examples of manneristic architecture north of the Alps and unique in Europe.
