Palais Althan, Baroque palace in Landstraße, Austria

The palace stretched along both sides of Barichgasse street, featuring a curved mansard roof and a central dome resembling the Hofburg Winter Riding School.

Joseph Emanuel Fischer von Erlach constructed the palace in 1732 for Count Gundacker von Althan on land previously owned by Count Karl Anton Harrach.

The palace represented one of the most substantial Baroque architectural complexes in German-speaking territories during the 18th century.

The former palace grounds extended across present-day Barichgasse 15-35 and 16-44, as well as Juchgasse 22-42 in Vienna's third district.

Michael von Barich divided the palace property into 34 parcels between 1842 and 1845, replacing the structure with residential buildings.
