Esterházy Palace (Slovak: Esterházyho palác) is a Neo-Renaissance-style building in the Old Town, Bratislava, near the Danube riverfront, built in the 1870s. [1] The building was reconstructed in the 1920s and in the 1950s, when it was adapted for the Slovak National Gallery needs.

Today, with the adjacent Water Barracks and modern extension, it hosts the Slovak National Gallery exhibitions.
