Palais Harrach, Baroque palace in Freyung district, Vienna, Austria.

The Palais Harrach stands on Freyung Square with a grand facade extending from the main entrance through multiple floors of classical architecture.

Count Ferdinand Bonaventura I von Harrach commissioned the construction of this palace in 1696 after purchasing the fire-damaged site from the Ottoman siege.

The palace served as home to the Harrach family picture collection from 1870 to 1970, displaying numerous artworks before their transfer to Schloss Rohrau.

While the palace interior remains closed to regular visitors, the building currently houses offices, shops, and serves as a venue for exhibitions and events.

The structure connects two parallel streets through an extensive layout, incorporating a central courtyard and remnants of a historical garden space.
