Palace of Czernins, Loretánské square, Prague, Hradčany
P1090541.JPG
It is one of the largest baroque buildings in Prague. It was built by Count Czernin in the mid-17th century for his noble family.
The palace was damaged many times and repaired and rebuilt many times. The original purpose served only for a hundred years. Then there were a lazarette, a shelter for the poor, a rental house, workshops, a barracks or an art gallery ...
Now the seat of the Minister of Foreign Affairs and most of his office is here.
