Palais Trautson, Vienna

The Baroque Palais Trautson in Vienna was owned by the noble Trautson family. It was built by Fischer von Erlach in 1712 for Johann Leopold Donat von Trautson, the first Prince of Trautson.

The Palais Trautson is one of the typical garden palaces in Vienna. It followed the design of the Amsterdam city hall. Since 1963 it is the home of the Ministry of Justice.
