Bad Ischl

During the period in which Franz Josef I made this spa resort his summer home, Bad Ischl became a popular retreat for Europe's aristocracy of the time. Nowadays you can see many references to the town's heyday with grand architecture including Kaiservilla - Franz Josef's summer residence.
