Palais Nostitz-Dyhrn
The Nostitz-Dyhrn Palace was a baroque city palace on Antonienstraße (today Ulica św. Antoniego ) in Breslau (today Wrocław ).
History and owner of the palace
The baroque Palais Nostitz-Dyhrn was built in the second half of the 17th century by an unknown architect and served as the residence of the von Nostitz family from around 1700 . The earliest illustration of the palace is an engraving by Friedrich Bernhard Werner from around 1750 . Georg Siegmund von Nostitz (1672–1761), who was raised to the rank of imperial count around 1711, bought the palace ; the next owner was his grandson, August Reichsgraf von Nostitz. He died in 1795, after which the building came into the possession of his widow, Jeanette von Nostitz, née. Baroness von Reiswitz-Kaderžin (1756–1840), a great-aunt of the writer Valeska Countess Bethusy-Huc .
Among other things, they had a son named August Ludwig von Nostitz , who was married to Klara Countess Hatzfeldt, a daughter of Prince Franz Ludwig von Hatzfeldt . August Ludwig, who was by marriage an uncle of Hermann von Hatzfeldt , 1st Duke of Trachenberg, and a brother-in-law of Ferdinand Lassalle , never owned the palace. His younger sister Eleonore Reichsgräfin von Nostitz married in 1805 Ernst Conrad Graf von Dyhrn (1769–1842), the son of Count Ernst von Dyhrn (1732–1793) and Juliette Baroness von Dyhrn (1741–1792). Count Dyhrn bought the palace from the family of his third wife in the same year and made it his residence as Palais Nostitz-Dyhrn . He was district president in Wroclaw, entails commissioner on Ulbersdorf and Reesewitz in the Kr. Oels, president of the Silesian general bank (called general landscape ) and also president of the Silesian parliament ( provincial parliament ). The palace has always been a meeting place for Silesian scholars, artists and the Prussian aristocracy.
Count Dyhrn sold the palace to the city of Breslau in 1830 for financial reasons. After that, the palace was never used as a private residence. It was heavily rebuilt in the next few years and soon afterwards demolished, which was the fate of many Wroclaw palaces in the 18th and 19th centuries.
