Epstein Palace
 

Palais Epstein is a Ringstraßenpalais in Vienna. It was build for the industrialist and banker Gustav Ritter von Epstein. The architect was Theophil von Hansen, who also designed the adjacent Austrian Parliament Building. Unlike traditional, baroque noble palaces in Vienna, the Palais Lieben-Auspitz was build in the late 19th century and is therefore considered a Ringstraßenpalais. It is up to five storeys high and build in the for its time typical neo-renaissance style.
