Clam-Gallas�v pal�c
|
|
| Jan V�clav Gallas, the Supreme Marshal of the Kingdom of Bohemia, Viceroy of Naples,
built himself in 1713�1719 a palace after plans by the Viennese court architect J.B.
Fischer of Erlach. The massive statues of giants on by the entrance, the sculptures on its
attic storey, and the sculpture decoration on the staircase are the work of Maty�
Bernard Braun. The frescoes on the staircase and in the halls on the second floor were
executed by Carlo Carlone. The Clam-Gallas Palace is one of the most outstanding buildings of the Prague Baroque. The Palace has been reconstructed, at present it is home to the Municipal Archive. Two halls are used for concerts: the Conference Hall with lovely ceiling frescoes and the Main Marble Hall with beautiful crystal chandeliers. |
