Palais Hoyos-Sprinzenstein

Palais Hoyos-Sprinzenstein, Late 19th-century palace in Wieden district, Vienna, Austria.

Palais Hoyos-Sprinzenstein is a five-story rental palace standing free on three sides at Hoyosgasse 5–7. A banded base and banded corner risalits with curved balconies on stone balustrades frame the facade, whose center holds a round-arch portal under a wrought-iron canopy. The two middle window axes are wider apart than the three flanking axes and sit within a banded field rising through the third and fourth floors, which carry curved window hoods and Baroque-style ornament.

The building was constructed around 1899 by architects Armand Louis Bauqué and Albert Pio for the Hoyos-Sprinzenstein family. An expansion followed in 1901 under architect Viktor Siedek, adding to the original design.

The palace takes its name from the Hoyos-Sprinzenstein family, reflecting the residences of Vienna's noble circles at that time. Walking past it today, you encounter a physical reminder of how the Austro-Hungarian aristocracy lived in the city.

The palace is located at Hoyosgasse 5-7, just a short walk from Karlskirche in the Wieden district. Its main entrance is marked by a wrought iron canopy above a rounded arch portal, making it straightforward to identify from the street.

The two central window axes are set slightly farther apart than the three flanking axes on each side, framed by a banded facade panel running across the third and fourth floors. This asymmetry is easy to miss at street level but shapes the whole composition.
