Bellotto descreve o castelo projetado por Fischer von Erlach para o imperador Josef I em 1693/94 após a reconstrução por Pacassi em 1744-49. Naquela época, a escada externa acima da passagem era construída e o anexo do pátio principal era conectado ao edifício principal. 

Maria Theresia expects on the balcony of the first floor the news of the victory of the imperial army on the Prussians at Kunersdorf (12 August 1759). A coach with two black horses is waiting until a group of 24 riders, following a coach with four horses, has passed. The left hand front horse of the latter coach is mounted, while the coach also has a coachman and a servant standing behind.
