Pachtů z Rájova, Baroque palace in Old Town, Czech Republic

The Pachtů z Rájova palace features ornate columns along its central courtyard and decorative sculptures created by artist Ignac Platzer on its facade.

Built in 1755 by architect Jan Josef Wirch, the palace combined five medieval houses into a single grand structure during the reign of Count Jan Josef Pachta.

The palace served as a meeting point for notable composers including Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, who composed six German dances during his stays here.

Located in Ovocný trh square, the former aristocratic residence now functions as a hotel, maintaining its historical elements while providing modern accommodations.

The palace entrance displays the Pachta family coat of arms above its portal, while the columned portico leads to an interior courtyard with preserved baroque details.
