Austria 2002 The Castle of Ambras
The Castle of Ambras
A general view of the castle to the south of Innsbruck with its
Renaissance style gardens forms the central design. The inscription
"Republik Österreich" is divided by the clock-tower, while the face
value of "10 Euro" and the date form a base. On the reverse side
three court musicians cross the floor of the Spanish Hall, based on a picture
from 1569. This design recalls the court festivals for which Fedinand II had
the Spanish Hall specially constructed.
