Palace of Justice, Neo-Renaissance courthouse on Schmerlingplatz, Vienna, Austria
The Palace of Justice spans an entire block with its grand Renaissance-style architecture featuring numerous ornate windows and decorative stonework elements.
The building suffered extensive damage during the July Revolt of 1927 when protesters set fire to the structure following controversial court decisions.
The central hall contains a prominent statue representing justice, reflecting the Austrian legal system's commitment to fair and equal treatment.
Visitors can access the rooftop café through security checkpoints between 7:30 AM and 3:30 PM on weekdays to view Vienna's central district.
The Palace houses multiple courts including the Supreme Court of Austria, making it the center of the national judicial system.
