AUSTRIA_riverstones mosaics in Sala Terrena of Greinburg Castle

Sala Terrena - at the end of the courtyard, constructed in 1625. Those grotto rooms are unique in Austria as one of the earliest examples of such an interior room north of the Alps. Outstanding and unusual, spacious rooms all covered with figurative and ornamental mosaics in Danube pebbles (riverstones). Greinburg is the oldest residential castle of Austria (was built from 1500 to 1700).
