Saint Michael & Saint George Palace is a magnificent neoclassical building located in the heart of Corfu Town, Greece. The palace was built in the early 19th century during the British Protectorate of the Ionian Islands and served as the residence of the British High Commissioner. The palace is named after the patron saints of the British royal family, Saint Michael and Saint George.
The palace is surrounded by lush gardens and has a grand entrance with a large staircase leading up to the main entrance. The interior of the palace is decorated with exquisite frescoes, ornate chandeliers, and luxurious furnishings. The palace has several rooms that are open to the public, including the Throne Room, the Ballroom, and the Banqueting Hall.
The Throne Room is the most impressive room in the palace, with its high ceilings, intricate moldings, and gilded decorations. The room is dominated by a large throne, which was used by the British High Commissioner during official ceremonies. The Ballroom is equally impressive, with its polished wooden floors, crystal chandeliers, and large windows that offer stunning views of the gardens.
The Banqueting Hall is another highlight of the palace, with its long dining table, elegant chairs, and beautiful paintings on the walls. The hall was used for formal dinners and receptions during the British Protectorate.
Today, the palace is home to the Museum of Asian Art, which houses a collection of over 10,000 artifacts from China, Japan, India, and Southeast Asia. The museum is considered one of the finest collections of Asian art in Europe and is a must-visit for art lovers.
Overall, Saint Michael & Saint George Palace is a stunning example of neoclassical architecture and a testament to the rich history of Corfu Town. Its grandeur and elegance make it a popular tourist attraction and a must-see for anyone visiting the island.
