History

The core of the building dates back to the 13th century, the era of the House of Árpád in Hungary. It was turned into a Gothic palace in the 15th century. In the 17th and 18th centuries the palace was modified and it functioned as the seat of Pozsony County within Hungary. In the 1850s the county moved to a new building and the Pálffy family reconstructed the building in late Classicist style. Now it hosts the town gallery of Pozsony.
