Archbishop Palace, Baroque archbishop residence in Hradčany, Czech Republic
The Archbishop Palace stands adjacent to Prague Castle, featuring marble balconies and ornate decorations across its three-floor structure with side wings.
The palace was constructed on eight combined townhouses in the 1660s and underwent substantial Baroque modifications during the second half of the 18th century.
The ceremonial halls within the palace contain numerous Parisian tapestries, while the Chapel of Saint John the Baptist displays period wall paintings and stucco work.
The palace remains an active residence for Prague archbishops at Hradčanské náměstí 16, though interior access requires advance arrangement through church authorities.
The palace features restored fabric wall coverings and marble elements that reflect architectural influences from Italian designers of the 17th century.
