The Swiss Wing Memorial Board

Vienna, Austria

Alte Burg (Old Fortress), which since the 18th century has been called the Schweizertrakt (Swiss Wing) after the Swiss Guards who served as the palace watch.

On a facade, to the left of the Swiss Gate, the polikhromny memorial board (1536) with 2 griffins supporting the coat of arms of Leopold I is placed.
