Palais Henckel von Donnersmarck, Neo-Renaissance palace in Innere Stadt, Austria

The palace stands at Parkring 14 with a corner entrance on Weihburggasse 32, featuring ornate window crowns and caryatids on its third floor facade.

Industrial magnate Hugo Henckel von Donnersmarck commissioned the palace in 1871 as a gift for his second wife, Laura Countess Kaszongi.

Count Edmund Zichy filled the palace with Indian and Chinese bronzes, creating an art collection that reflected the refined tastes of Ringstrasse society.

The five-star Almanac Palais Vienna hotel occupies the building, offering luxury accommodations and event spaces in the former principal floor.

Unlike other Ringstrasse palaces, the main entrance faces Weihburggasse instead of the grand boulevard, marking its distinct architectural design.
