Jakabov palace, Gothic Revival palace in Old Town, Košice, Slovakia.

Jakabov Palace is a residential building in Košice with a mix of Gothic and eclectic architectural elements. The facade shows carefully worked stonework and decorative windows along Mlynska Street.

Peter Jakab built the palace in 1899 as a private residence. After World War II, the building became a presidential residence for Czechoslovakia.

The palace shows how wealthy residents in the late 1800s mixed modern and historical design ideas in their homes. This blend of styles shaped how the street looked and inspired other owners to build in similar ways.

The building sits on Mlynska Street, which connects the railway station to the old town center and is easy to reach on foot. Its location on this main route makes it a good landmark when exploring the city.

The street name Mlynska means Miller Street and refers to an old mill that once stood near the palace. Some older residents still call the building by this connection to the area's former industrial past.
