Description

Schloss Eggenberg, constructed shortly after 1625 by the architect of the Graz Court, Pietro de Pomis, was built as a state residence of Duke Hans Ulrich von Eggenberg (1568-1634), one of the most prominent political personalities of 17th century Austria. The large four-winged site with three arcade courts and a crowning central tower is recognized as the most representative example of early baroque palace construction in Austria. Thus it became a prototype of building for the nobility of the following two centuries.
