No. 20: Palais Sternbach and Marian column
The Sternbach Palace with its garden takes up a good half the length of Oberuchten. It goes back to the so-called Welsberg habitation from the Middle Ages. Bartholomäus von Welsberg built the property and also today's parish church to the east of it. He was castle captain of Bruneck and imperial councilor under Maximilian I. After frequent changes of ownership, Anton Wenzl Freiherr von Sternbach , one of the richest landlords in Tyrol , renovated the building from the ground up, so that in 1684 the prince-bishop raised it to the rank of a residence with the name Sternbach . A house chapel was then built into the new residence and the stone statue of Maria Immaculata by the sculptor Michael Rasner was erected in front of the building in 1701. Due to its copper roof, the palace was spared the fire in 1723. In 1738, Emperor Franz Stephan of Lorraine and Maria Theresa stayed here for one night while passing through. From 1741 to 1743 the Ursulines were able to find temporary accommodation in the palace as long as the Ursuline monastery had not yet been built.
The facade of the representative building has a corner bay window , curved volute gables and a stone-framed arched gate with a coat of arms cartouche . In front of it there is a vestibule with columns and an oriel structure. From there you get to a groin vaulted hall with pillars and the staircase with stucco ceilings . In a room on the second floor there are frescoes by Kaspar Waldmann . A tiled stove from around 1700 with a domed roof should also be mentioned.
