Hrzánský palác, Renaissance palace in Hradčany, Czech Republic

The palace forms a complex of connected buildings situated along the southern edge of Loretánská Street near Prague Castle.

The property changed ownership multiple times since the 14th century, with notable residents including cathedral builder Petr Parléř and chancellor Jindřich of Plavno.

The Metropolitan Chapter of St. Vitus established its provostry in the palace after 1756, transforming it into an ecclesiastical administrative center.

The palace currently functions as an official venue for the Prime Minister of the Czech Republic, hosting governmental meetings and ceremonial events.

Count Hrzán constructed a steep spiral staircase with nearly one hundred steps after the division of properties, marking a distinctive architectural feature.
