Ungern-Sternberg Palace, Historical palace in Vanalinn, Estonia
The Ungern-Sternberg Palace stands on Toompea Hill with symmetrical limestone facades and detailed Renaissance revival architectural elements throughout its structure.
Built between 1865 and 1868 for Count Ewald Alexander Andreas von Ungern-Sternberg, the palace exemplifies the influence of Baltic German nobility in Estonia.
