Palais Fanto
Austria
Do not expect a castle. Palais Fanto is a city palace, a monumental neoclassical block on the corner where Schwarzenbergplatz 6 meets Daffingerstraße and Zaunergasse, in Vienna's third district, Landstraße. It stands free on two sides, and the angle facing Schwarzenbergplatz is the one built to be looked at: colossal Ionic columns rising to a dome, a projecting portal porch, wrought-iron balconies, and reclining allegorical figures stretched out along the attic. Stand back on the square and let the corner do its work before you go any closer.
