Don't forget the "vapours." They tried to blame that on their corsets being too tight.
Are you familiar with Empress Elizabeth of Austria (Sisi). Now, there was a loveless marriage. Fortunately, she was a strong woman. She carved out her own suite of rooms to the other side of her husband's suite, then installed a doorbell that he had to ring if he wished to see her. She, too, got the wanderlust and travelled every chance she could get. Unfortunately, she ended up a pawn in the game and was assassinated on one of her trips. She's a very fascinating character. I went to Vienna once and got to tour the royal palace. Lots of interesting history there.
Ah! The vapours! How could I forget! She could have also had a canker or been of melancholic humour- it usually described depression IIRC. I'm not familiar with Sisi, I've had a brief glimpse and stuck her on my list to look at properly. A tour of the palace sounds great, love architecture and history (preferably combined as here). How ever did people not so far removed from us ever do all these incredible things?
Empress Sisi was very beautiful and known for her long lustrous hair, what a tragedy! Would love to tour the Royal Palace but my first stop would be the Spanish Riding School! 🐎
The Imperial Treasury is also located within the confines of the palace, and is like a museum. They have both a piece of Jesus' Cross with a nail hole in it and also one of the nails, as two of their treasures.
Only problem is, the cross-section of the nail is square and the hole is round. Kek!
How do they explain that!?! 🐸
By not putting them side-by-side -- and that's the honest truth! Kek!
