I removed the following from the entry, since it has nothing to do with the Belvedere palace:
On June 7, 2004, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that 88-year-old Maria Altmann, the niece and heir of Gustav Klimt model Adele Bloch-Bauer, could sue Austria in a U.S. court for the return of six Klimt paintings stolen from her uncle by the occupying Nazis in 1938. Kept by Austria after the war, the paintings are currently displayed in the Austrian Gallery in the Belvedere. The paintings include the celebrated "Buchenwald" and "Adele Bloch-Bauer I" and have a current estimated market value in excess of US$150,000,000.

[edit] Schloss Belvedere
"Schloss Belvedere" is what it's called, and it has never been a palace, or hof. Vienna has a palace. It would make better sense as Schloss Belvedere. Would there be objections to renamning this article? --Wetman 01:14, 23 September 2005 (UTC)
