Achbishop´s Palace in Olomouc

The official seat of Olomouc bishops and archbishops, a place where Emperor Franz Joseph I took over the throne and where Austrian emperor and Russian tsar met before the Battle of Austerlitz, and a building where Empress Maria Theresa, czech presidents such as T. G. Masaryk and Vaclav Havel and Pope St. John Paul II stayed – this is the Archbishop’s Palace in Olomouc.

The building from the 17th century offers a guided tour with representative halls that have preserved rich decoration and furnishings from the Rococo, Empire, and Neo-Baroque periods.
