Wrocław Palace

Breslau Palace, now known as Wrocław Palace in Wrocław (Breslau), Poland was bought by Frederick the Great of Prussia from the Baron of Spätgen in 1750 and converted into a royal residence.

The building was badly damaged in 1945, during the Second World War. About a half of the building remains today, and houses the city museum.
