Rohan Palace is almost the main palace building in Strasbourg. In addition, today there are three city museums inside the palace: the Museum of Fine Arts, Decorative Arts and the Archaeological Museum.

The palace was built from 1731 to 1742. The main purpose of the palace was the residence of the Strasbourg bishop. After his death and until the 19th century, the Rohan Palace was secretly the Strasbourg residence of all French kings up to Charles X.

Since 1872, being given to the city administration, the palace ceased to be anyone's residence and was redesigned for the needs of the Strasbourg Imperial University. At the same time, three museums were organized in the palace. It served as the main building of Rohan University until 1989. When it was decided to reconstruct it globally. The museums were left where they were, and the classrooms were removed, returning the interior to the original royal luxury.
