Wallenstein Palace, Baroque palace in Malá Strana, Czech Republic

The Wallenstein Palace spans a large area in northern Malá Strana district, featuring geometric gardens, a pond with fountains, and bronze statues.

Construction began in 1624 when Albrecht von Wallenstein acquired 24 houses, three gardens, and municipal structures to build his residence during the Thirty Years War.

The Knights' Hall contains ceiling frescoes depicting Wallenstein as Mars, while garden corridors display mythological and astrological themes created by Baccio del Bianca.

The palace serves as the Senate headquarters of the Czech Republic, opening its doors to visitors during weekends with free admission to both buildings and gardens.

The artificial grotto in the garden displays grotesque faces and animal figures on its facade, with stalactite formations representing the passage of time.
