The Burggarten is a public park in the Innere Stadt, the first district of Vienna, Austria. The park was built for the royal family after the destruction of the city fortifications by Napoleon.
== History == In 1809, following France's decisive victory over Austria in the War of the Fifth Coalition, French troops occupying Vienna destroyed a major defensive bastion of the Hofburg, the Burgbastei. Instead of rebuilding, the area in front of the Hofburg was redesigned. Court architect Ludwig Gabriel von Remy designed what would become a private garden for Francis I, the last Holy Roman Emperor and first Emperor of Austria, who had a keen interest in botany. The park was built by court gardener Franz Antoine the Elder based on Remy's plans; the two also worked on the nearby Volksgarten.
