Palais Schönburg, Baroque palace in Wieden district, Vienna, Austria.

The palace stretches across 40 meters in length and stands 15 meters tall, featuring a grand entrance hall reaching almost 9 meters in height.

The palace contains multiple event spaces, including a library and lounge on the ground floor, offering venues for contemporary Viennese gatherings and celebrations.

Located one kilometer from Vienna State Opera House, the palace includes modern amenities such as air conditioning, elevator access, and audio-visual equipment.

The structure incorporates a half-cylindrical central risalit with a concave frontal facade and maintains private gardens covering 15,000 square meters.
