Picture of the day

A gloriette is a building in a garden erected on a site that is elevated with respect to its surroundings. The structural execution and shape can vary greatly, often in the form of a pavilion or tempietto, more or less open on the sides. Shown here is the gloriette of Schönbrunn Palace in Vienna, Austria.Photograph: Thomas Wolf

Coords and other Schönbrunn related stuff

hi, this is an article about a type of building and as well about a specific instance of that type of building. It is interwiki'd with articles about that type of building. That said, I would appreciate of someone removes the coords for the article and separates things accordingly. --Herzi Pinki (talk) 08:14, 19 February 2019 (UTC)

Etymology

from the 12th century French gloire meaning "little room"

This is not quite correct. The meaning is "little glory" because this little room was richly decorated.--2003:CE:BF18:60E7:7D6F:AF55:1A5F:4EF9 (talk) 11:25, 26 December 2019 (UTC)
