🇩🇪 Fulda City Palace (Fuldaer Stadtschloss)

The most magnificent secular building in Fulda is the City Palace, which once served as the residence of the Prince-Abbots and Prince-Bishops of Fulda. 🏰 The current Baroque-style palace was expanded between 1708 and 1714 into a four-wing complex with side wings enclosing a grand courtyard. The architect behind this stunning palace was Johann Dientzenhofer, commissioned by Prince Adalbert von Schleifras. ✨ Step into 18th-Century Courtly Life Today, much of the palace houses the city’s municipal government, while parts have been meticulously restored to their historical splendor. Visitors who explore the Prince’s Hall and its opulent adjoining rooms will gain a deep insight into the lavish lifestyle of the absolutist era. 🎭 The highlight is the Prince’s Apartment, originally decorated around 1730 and later redesigned in the 1750s with exquisite Rococo elements. Gilded frames, ornate mirrors, luxurious wallpapers, and masterful paintings transport you back to the height of aristocratic grandeur. 💶 Admission Fees Adults: €3.50 Children: Free 👶 #Germany#TravelGermany#ExploreGermany#Fulda#FuldaPalace#BaroqueArchitecture#HistoryLovers#CastleTour
