Recordist's notes

The dance hall of the half-forgotten Baroque palace near Charles Bridge. It was built around 1735 for the Prince Vinzenz Paul Mansfeld. Sculptures on the portal and a fountain with a statue of Neptune in the courtyard were most likely made in Matiáš Braun’s workshop. In mid-19th century a neighbouring house was attached to the Palace and a passage was created on the right side of the main façade.
