Palais Porcia, Baroque mansion near Residenz, Munich, Germany

Palais Porcia is a three-story mansion featuring a symmetrical facade adorned with elaborate stone carvings and large rectangular windows framed by decorative surrounds. The building combines Baroque characteristics with Italian architectural influence in its overall design.

Italian architect Enrico Zuccalli designed the building in 1693 for Count Fugger as one of Munich's first Baroque palaces. The interior underwent major renovation in the 1730s, reflecting the architectural shifts of that period.

The palace takes its name from Prince Porcia, husband of Josepha Topor-Morawitzky, mistress of Elector Charles Albert, who received it in 1731. In the 1930s the building hosted events of the Jewish Cultural Union, supported by its non-Jewish owner bank despite pressure from Nazi authorities. Today it belongs to HypoVereinsbank.

Palais Porcia stands at Kardinal-Faulhaber-Straße 12 in Munich's northwestern old town, a short walk from the Residenz and the Theatinerkirche. Only the street facade survives from the original building; the interior was rebuilt in 1952 with a larger courtyard. It belongs to HypoVereinsbank, so the courtyard and rooms are not open to visitors, but the facade can be viewed from the public street.

The building was among the first in Munich to introduce the Baroque style in residential architecture, setting a trend for future aristocratic homes. Its creation marked the moment when Munich moved away from older architectural styles and embraced Italian design.
