Palais Erzherzog Carl, Baroque palace in Innere Stadt, Vienna, Austria.

The palace features a grand white stone staircase and stands at the corner of Albertinaplatz and Augustinerstraße in central Vienna.

Architect Franz Anton Pilgram completed the construction in 1603, and the building initially served as a residence before changing owners multiple times.

The palace now functions as a cultural center, housing the House of Music and the Vienna Philharmonic Orchestra Museum.

Visitors can explore both musical exhibitions and student accommodations within the building, which underwent renovation between 1958 and 1960.

The site previously hosted an imperial foundry in 1567 before three separate houses were combined and expanded to form the current structure.
