House of the Seven Electors, Renaissance residential building on Market Square, Wrocław, Poland.

The House of the Seven Electors is a Renaissance residential building on Wrocław's Market Square with a detailed and ornate facade. The decoration features painted images and ornaments depicting Emperor Leopold I and seven electors of the Holy Roman Empire.

The building dates from the 13th century and underwent major renovation in 1672. This renovation included new window frames and architectural improvements to the entrance portal.

The building displays Gothic-style windows and exposed brick that speak to its medieval origins and craftsmanship. The elaborate facade decoration shows how significant this house was in the city's life.

The building sits directly on the Market Square and is easy to reach on foot. You can view the facade from street level and see the ornamental details from various angles.

The facade features a Habsburg eagle in the upper ornamental section, a heraldic symbol pointing to the building's political connections. The house underwent restoration by artist Jan Zelbromski in 1989 to recover its appearance after earlier alterations.
