Palais Auersperg in Spring

Palais Auersperg looking splendid in Spring.

 

Beautiful baroque palace built in 1706 by Giovanni Christiano Neupauer, according to plans by Johann Bernhard Fischer von Erlach for Hieronymus Capece di Rofrano. It has been the home and “residence” of the Vienna Residence Orchestra since its foundation.

Music has always been the invisible center of the palace. From Christoph Willibald Gluck, through Joseph Haydn and W. A. Mozart, who like many other musicians, composed for world premieres in the palace, the arc stretches to Richard Strauss, whose opera “Der Rosenkavalier” was inspired by the palace
