After the destruction by Swedes during the Thirty Years' War Bishop Charles II of Lichtenstein - Kastelkorn decided to build up an Early-Baroque palace. It is a representative aristocratic seat and a place of noblemen's meetings and courts built on the site of the former early-medieval fortified settlement and subsequent Gothic and Renaissance castle. Architectural conceptions of the whole castle complex as well as other objects of the urban preserve are the works of Filiberto Lucchese and Giovanni Pietro Tencalla, Italian architects. Visitors can see works of Gothic and Renaissance painting from Central Europe (Marian cycle, Lucas Cranach the Elder and others), portrait art of the German and Dutch painters of the 16th century (Q. Metsys, H. v. Aachen, H. Suess, V. Kulmach and others), genre pictures of the 16th and 17th centuries (F. Floris, A. Mirou, D. Vinckboons, J.
