Keglevich Palace, Baroque mansion in Panska Street, Bratislava, Slovakia.

Keglevich Palace is a Baroque mansion on Panska Street in Bratislava with a U-shaped floor plan comprising three wings and an inner courtyard. The building connects different areas through a grand staircase and a gallery overlooking the court.

This palace was built in the first half of the 1700s on medieval plots where buildings had stood for centuries before. It incorporates Gothic and Renaissance elements from the earlier structures that occupied the same site.

Beethoven visited this place in 1796 and composed a piano sonata here for his student Babette Keglevich, giving the building musical significance. This connection to classical music shapes how people view the palace today.

The building underwent complete restoration in 1998, including new roofing and facade work for contemporary use. The location is central in the old town and easily accessible on foot.

The entrance portal displays impressive lion statues and a coat of arms symbolizing Count Joseph Keglevich's noble roots. These carved details reveal the power and status of the family who had the palace built.
