County palace in Osijek

Osijek County Palace was built in the first half of the 19th century as the seat of county administration. The design is associated with architect Nikola Hild, and the building was conceived in a Neoclassical manner with an emphasized central section of the façade. It stands on Županijska Street, close to the co-cathedral and the main city square, so it fits naturally into a walking tour of the Upper Town. As it remains an administrative building, the visit is primarily about viewing the exterior, its balanced proportions and the palace’s relationship to one of Osijek’s most important historic streets.
