The palace belonged to the noble Vrakijen family, which had a house in this place already in the 14th century. The current palace is from the second half of the 18th century. Unusually for a palace in the Bay of Kotor, it is plastered.
Above the entrance is the most outstanding decorative detail: a composition of angels in stucco with a baroque frame with the coat of arms of the Vrakijen family, depicting a swallow. Next to the entrance is an arched street passage, above which is a room that originally served as a house chapel, the only one of its kind in Kotoru.
The palace has a well-preserved interior. The first floor is accessed via a stairwell decorated with wall paintings and marbles in the "al secco" technique. They were made by the Italian master Napoleon d'Este in the second half of the 19th century. The main salon floor is still covered with original mosaics and terrazzo. Access from the salon to the side rooms is through original doors made of several types of wood.
