Melker Hof, Heritage building in Innere Stadt, Austria

Melker Hof stands as a large residential complex featuring baroque-classical architecture with four inner courtyards and ornate facade decorations.

The building dates back to 1438 when Melk Abbey purchased Andre Dietram's house, which formed the initial core of the current structure.

The structure contains a chapel dedicated to Saints Leopold and Koloman, established in 1510 when the building first received its name Melker Hof.

The building houses Melker Stiftskeller, one of Vienna's oldest wine cellars, which received permission in 1629 to import 40 fuders of wine annually.

The structure features remarkable illusionistic ceiling paintings by Johann Bergl and contains an altar with a 1773 Assumption of Mary painting.
