Hellbrunn Castle & The Trick Fountains

Ezekiel really enjoyed the gardens and the trick fountains at the Hellbrunn castle outside of Salzburg. The palace was built for one of the prince archbishops of Salzburg in 1613. The archbishop had trick fountains built on the grounds to entertain guests when they visited the palace. All of the trick fountains were designed using only gravity to power them and they were intended to spray the guests visiting the gardens while the archbishop remained dry. There were also several water operated "theaters"used to entertain the guests. These theaters were very intricate and seemed very advanced for when they were built. Apparently, part of the grounds and buildings were used in the Sound Of Music film.
