The building of the French Embassy in Vienna is located in one of the most prestigious areas of the city, on Technik Street, 2. It is one of the most interesting buildings located along Schwarzenberg Square. Its construction began in 1904 and was completed only in 1912. The building was designed by French architect Georges Chedanne, whose popularity brought the design of the Galeries Lafayette in Paris.
Large and very beautiful building made in Art Nouveau style. White marble was used to build the embassy. The three-storey building is complemented by a magnificent attic floor. The windows of the first and second floors are made in the form of arches. The upper corners of the main facade are decorated with two gold high reliefs.
