Palais Fürstenberg, Neoclassical palace in First District, Vienna, Austria

The Palais Fürstenberg stands as a four-story structure with seven window axes on Grünangergasse and six on Domgasse, featuring an ornate portal with Tuscan columns.

Ernst Freiherr von Hatzenberg commissioned the palace in the 1710s, and its construction was completed in 1720 under the architectural direction of Antonio Beduzzi.

The palace entrance hall displays classical marble elements and stucco decorations, with statues representing deities including Minerva, Mercury, Venus, and Hercules.

The building currently houses the Austrian Book Trade Association and maintains its status as a protected historical monument in the heart of Vienna.

Two sculpted windhounds, representing the heraldic animals of the von Hatzenberg family, guard the main entrance portal of the palace.
