Palais Cumberland, Palace in Penzing district, Vienna, Austria.

Palais Cumberland is a palace on Penzinger Straße in Vienna's Penzing district, formed by joining several formerly separate buildings. Its yellow facades are divided by pilasters and bays, with a rusticated ground floor and a dark mansard roof. A central section rises into two dark pointed turrets, and a tall antenna stands on the roof behind them.

The property originated when Count Emanuel Teles acquired three separate plots in 1744 and built the initial structure on the site. Later, Emperor Franz Josef I. consolidated two distinct palaces into a single unified complex.

The palace houses the Max Reinhardt Seminar, a drama school where acting students study and rehearse within its rooms, filling the spaces with artistic activity. This ongoing use has made the building a living center for performing arts education and training.

The building houses the Czech Republic's embassy and educational institutions, which means some areas may not be open to general visitors. It is worth checking in advance about access to different sections or whether guided tours are available.

The duke in the palace's name was Georg V of Hanover, who lost his kingdom in the 1866 war against Prussia, sided with Austria, and settled in Vienna in exile. He bought the two neighbouring palaces in 1868 and stored the Hanoverian crown jewels, the Welf Treasure, here.
