Enrico Zuccalli built the mansion in Italian baroque style in 1693 for the Count Fugger. In 1710 it was bought by Count Törring and in 1731 by Elector Charles Albert . His architect François De Cuvilles restored the mansion in 1736 in Rococo style for the countess Topor-Morawitzka, a mistress of Charles Albert. The mansion is named after her husband, Prince Porcia. In 1819 a concert hall was integrated by Métivier for the "Museum", a cultural association which had acquired the mansion. In 1934 the Palais Porcia was acquired by a bank. The restoration after the destruction during World War II took place in 1950-1952. |
