National gallery - Schwarzenberg Palace

Permanent Exhibition of the Collection of Old Masters of the National Gallery in Prague
Baroque in Bohemia

On the three floors of the reconstructed building of the palace, the new permanent exhibition presents about 160 sculptural exhibits and 280 pieces of late Renaissance and Baroque painting, created in the territory of the lands of the Crown of Bohemia from the late 16th to the end of the 18th centuries. The Schwarzenberg Palace is one of the most beautiful Renaissance structures in Prague. It was built in 1545–1567 by Agostino de Galli for Jan Lobkowicz Jr. In the late 16th century, the Lobkowicz family lost the palace in confiscation; its new owners were the Rožmberks, Švamberks, Eggenberks and eventually the Schwarzenbergs.
