Viktor Rumpelmayer
Template:Short description Viktor Rumpelmayer (7 November 1830 – 14 June 1885, in Vienna)[1] was a 19th-century Austro-Hungarian architect, whose style was a combination of French and Italian influences and the Viennese trends characteristic for the period. He is regarded as one of the most eminent Central European architects of his time.[2]
Born in Preßburg, Hungary (Pozsony, today Bratislava, Slovakia), Rumpelmayer worked not only in his home country, but also in Bulgaria, where he designed and constructed the Neo-Baroque royal palace of Bulgaria (today the National Art Gallery) and Knyaz Alexander Battenberg's summer palace Euxinograd, on the Black Sea coast.[2] Among his other works are a number of palaces for well-known members of the nobility, the British embassy in Vienna[3] with Christ Church, the German embassy in Vienna[4] the Portuguese pavilion at the Paris Exposition Universelle (1900), among other prominent commissions[2] Rumpelmayer also redesigned the Festetics Palace in Keszthely, Hungary.[5]
