Palais Preysing, Rococo mansion in Münchner Altstadt, Germany

The Palais Preysing features nine ornate window frames on its facade and contains decorated living quarters, including a chapel and a ballroom.

Built between 1723 and 1728 by architect Joseph Effner, this residence served as home for Count Johann Maximilian of Preysing-Hohenaschau in Munich.

The building represents the first Rococo palace in Munich, displaying elaborate stucco work and architectural elements that define this decorative style.

Located at Residenzstrasse 27, opposite the Residenz, the palace now houses various shops while maintaining its decorated staircase open to visitors.

The neighboring Viscardigasse alley features gold-colored pavement stones commemorating citizens who used this path to avoid saluting during the Nazi period.
