Merchant: Oxfam
Merchant's Category: Media> Books
The Esterhazy Palace in Fertod is the most beautiful baroque palace in Hungary; it is also referred to as 'the Hungarian Versailles'. The 126-room palace surrounded by outbuildings and a 200-hectare park is the largest palace complex in Hungary and the third largest baroque palace in Europe. The centre of the building is the banquet hall upstairs with the connecting music hall. The construction and heyday of the palace is associated with Prince Miklos Esterhazy "The Extravagant", who continuously carried out constructions from 1762 until his death in 1790, in order to establish a residence comparable to royal courts, and where luxurious ceremonies were common. Eszterhaza was visited not only by distinguished families of the period, but also by Empress Maria Theresa, and the great composer Joseph Haydn lived and worked here as well between 1766 and 1790. Hardback, with 67 unnumbered pages of plates. Some wear to boards. Text and illustrations unmarked.
