Germany - Memmelsdorf, Seehof Palace
Seehof Palace (Schloss Seehof) was built from 1686 as a summer residence for the Bamberg Prince-Bishops. The palace is often Marquardsburg after its founder called Marquard Sebastian von Schenk von Stauffenberg. This Prince-Bishop loved the rural area around Memmelsdorf , about 5 km’s from Bamberg. He ordered the Franconian builder Antonio Petrini to replace a local estate with a baroque palace.
Lothar Franz von Schönborn, elected Prince-Bishop of Bamberg in 1693, designated an area of 21 ha of land with adjacent lakes and forests to be made into gardens. The palace hill was reshaped into precise terraces and the gardens divided into six large sections. During the 18th century, the palace garden was one of the most famous Rococo gardens in Germany
After secularization - early 19th century - it fell into disrepair and by the end of the 20th century extensive renovation work was necessary. Among the features reflecting the splendour of the former garden are the restored cascade with its waterworks and some of the original sandstone sculpture.
Nowadays most of the building is occupied by the Bavarian State Office for Monument Protection. But nine restored rooms of the Prince-Bishop’s apartment are open to the public; the spacious gardens and fountains can be visited free of charge.

HFF have a good weekend
I like also very much the PiP's!!
Many thanks for the information, Jaap
Farben und die sehr schönen Details! Ein tolles Schloss!
Wir haben das Bauwerk bisher nur aus der Ferne gesehen. Ein Abstecher wäre verlockend, auch wenn (offenbar) die Diensträume des Amtes für Besucher verschlossen sind.
I have to admit though, it's a spectacularly beautiful building - captured in lovely colour and detail by yourself..!! More superb detail in the PiPs and an interesting narrative.
Ich wünsche dir ein schönes Wochenende, Jaap!
Thank you Jaap.
bon W/end Jaap
Have a great weekend!
