In 1818, this building also became the property of the university. Baroque facade outside already shows beginning Rococo influence and sandstone sculptures by Elias Räntz. In the central wing there is a Water Hall with significant stucco decoration. There used to be fountains that spouted water from the marble floor. Today, the magnificent hall is used for weddings, among other things.
