Overview
This small hillside garden next to the Regional Museum was once part of a Jesuit seminary, and though modest in height, it's widely regarded as the town's most famous viewpoint. From its terrace, you get a sweeping view of the castle with its painted tower, the winding lanes of the Old Town, and the colorful rooftops below. It's also the first viewpoint you'll encounter walking from the bus terminal into town. A small park just behind the municipal theater nearby offers an alternative angle, taking in the castle, the Eggenberg brewery, and the Latrán district. Free and open. 5-minute walk from the bus terminal.
Travel Tips
Visit in early morning or late afternoon golden hour for fewer crowds and the best light. Easy to combine with a Regional Museum visit next door.
