Palais Schwarzenberg, Neoclassical palace in Landstraße district, Vienna, Austria

The Palais Schwarzenberg displays grand marble galleries, extensive gardens, and classical architectural elements designed by Joseph Emanuel Fischer von Erlach.

Construction began in 1697 under architect Johann Lucas von Hildebrandt, and Prince Adam Franz of Schwarzenberg purchased the property in 1716 to oversee its completion.

The palace halls have hosted numerous aristocratic gatherings, social events, and artistic performances throughout the centuries of Viennese high society.

While currently closed for renovations, visitors can view the palace exterior from Schwarzenbergplatz, accessible via metro stations Karlsplatz and Stadtpark on line U4.

The palace gained international recognition when it served as James Bond's hotel accommodation in the 1987 film 'The Living Daylights'.
