The Nostitz Palace in the Lesser Town in Prague was a residence of the noble family of Nostitz-Rieneck for centuries. It is an Early Baroque building, built between 1662 and 1675 for supreme chamberlain Count Jan Hartvik Nostitz-Rieneck. It is situated in the Maltese Square in the historical centre of Prague. The Nostitz Palace was a residence of the noble family till 1945. The Palace, recently perfectly resconstructed, is the seat of the Ministry of Culture of the Czech Republic nowadays.
