Mausoleum Bückeburg, Princely mausoleum in Bückeburg, Germany

The mausoleum spans 27 meters in width and rises 43 meters high, featuring a massive gold mosaic dome within the Bückeburg castle park grounds.

Built between 1911 and 1915 by architect Paul Baumgarten, this structure replaced the 17th-century princely mausoleum in Stadthagen as the family burial site.

The entrance portal displays reliefs depicting warriors, hunters, riders, arts, commerce, and agriculture, representing the various aspects of regional life.

Visitors can access the mausoleum Tuesday through Sunday from 12:00 PM to 5:00 PM, with guided tours available for 9 euros per adult.

The mausoleum contains Central Europe's largest mosaic, covering 500 square meters and incorporating 1,400 different color shades under its dome.
