Thun Palace, Baroque palace in Malá Strana, Czech Republic.

The Thun Palace extends ninety meters along the street with a curved facade and displays the coat of arms of the Kingdom of Bohemia.

The palace began construction in 1726 on land purchased by Countess Markéta Anna Thunová, transforming from the original Roupov House into a grand residence.

The building housed an Italian opera company in 1779, with performances attended by Emperor Joseph II before a fire destroyed the theater in 1794.

The palace serves as the meeting location for the Chamber of Deputies of the Parliament of the Czech Republic since 1993.

A Latin inscription on the facade reads 'Let the welfare of the state be the highest law', reflecting its current parliamentary function.
