A bit of history:
The residence of the Prince bishops of Brixen dates back to the end of 1200.
In 1595 the prince-bishop Andrew of Austria transformed the building into a sumptuous residence, in the late Renaissance Italian style.
After Andrew’s death, the works were completed, but different from the original project.
In 1710 additions and modifications were made in the Baroque style.
Until 1973 the palace was the residence of the Bishops of Brixen and from 1976 it became the seat of the Diocesan Museum.
