From the 4th July, Herbst Palace has been closed due to the renovation of the building.

Based on conservation documentation and previously unknown archive photos, a project of interior design and exhibition arrangement has been developed. Having finished conservation works, the palace’s rooms will be closer to their original appearance dating back to the times when the Herbsts resided there. The effect of the changes that start on the inside will be presented to visitors in Spring 2013.

Throughout the period of renovation , the palace will still house education activities, and in Spring 2012 Early Art Gallery will be opened at the coachhouse of the Herbst Palace.
