The Palais Campofranco is a stately home in Bolzano . It is located between Mustergasse and Waltherplatz and has been a listed building since 1952.
The house was originally in the hands of the rich Florentine banking family, the Botsch , who came to Bozen around 1300 as merchants and moneylenders and were ennobled in 1342. After the expiry of the Botsch von Zwingenburg and Auer in 1637, the building remained in stately ownership and was converted into its present form as a baroque palace by the Bozen merchant family von Mayrl in 1764. When Archduke Rainer resigned from his office as viceroy of Lombardy-Veneto in 1848 , he acquired the palace as a retirement home and lived in it as a private citizen until his death in 1853. The palace is named after his granddaughter, Princess Campofranco, who stayed there until 1936 inhabited. Since then, the palace has been owned by the noble family Count Georg Kuenburg.
