Description
He was influenced by his education in Vienna and in particular by the style of the architect Fischer of Erlach. He started working in Prague by the very end of the 17th century. In 1706 he was appointed head master constructor of the ramparts in Prague.
There he also designed numerous palaces, which are distinguished by their remarkably well-incorporated garden frontage. Outside of Prague, Alliprandi is renowned through his most remarkable construction, the Church of the Holy Trinity in Kuks.
