The Potocki Palace is a grand nineteenth-century mansion in Lviv, built for an aristocratic family in a refined French classical style rarely seen in the region. Its symmetrical facade, formal reception rooms and small ornamental garden evoke the elegance of a western European chateau. Today it houses part of the city's art gallery, displaying old master paintings amid the restored interiors. Visitors tour the sequence of gilded salons and picture rooms.
