The Kunstkammer of Archduke Ferdinand of Tyrol contained also manuscripts and albums with graphic artworks. Among those preserved at the KHM Wien, it is possible to specify an album of graphics of buildings of central ground plans by J. A. du Cerceau. It is possible to consider that it could have had an influence on the resolution of the basement of summer palace Star. The ground plan of church B among the graphics by the French architect has both the same resolution of the central room surrounded by a circular corridor and its apses are divided by three niches. This uncommon motif appears in the grand floor halls in Star. The ground plan of Star could have been created thanks to a creative treatment of the principles of Antiquity and the Renaissance, in a similar way to how du Cerceau varied certain motifs in the mentioned album. In the conclusion, the text argues against the idea that the archduke´s collection of armour should have been displayed in the niches.
