Just a short drive southeast of Innsbruck, Ambras Palace (Schloss Ambras) was the residence of Archduke Ferdinand from 1563-95. 

In the Lower Castle (Unterschloss) are two rooms containing a fine collection of arms and armor, while on the first floor of the Kornschüttgebäude is a valuable art collection, including many sculptures and applied arts.

 In the Upper Castle (Hochschloss) is the bathroom of Ferdinand's wife Philippine Welser, a rarity as one of the few private bathrooms surviving from the 16th century and featuring a 1.5-meter-deep copper tub.
