"Puvodne dva gotické meštanské domy, s pozdejšími prestavbami, sjednocené v letech 1773–75 rokokovou prestavbou podle projektu A. Schmidta pro Jana Adama Kaunice. Bohatá fasáda dekorovaná štuky (mj. reliéf s Pallas Athénou) je zdobena skupinami pololežících figur a putti, snad od I. F. Platzera. V roce 1931 prošel palác adaptací, v soucasnosti slouží jako sídlo velvyslanectví Srbska."

"Originally two Gothic townhouses, with later adaptations, joined together in 1773-75 by a Rococo reconstruction based on a plan by A. Schmidt for Jan Adam Kaunic. The façade is richly decorated with stucco (e.g. a relief with Pallas Athena) and adorned with groups of semi-lying figures and putti, perhaps by I. F. Platzer. In 1931 the palace has been renovated and now is used by the Embassy of Serbia."
