Schloss Weißenstein, Baroque palace in Pommersfelden, Germany.

Schloss Weißenstein is a Baroque palace in Pommersfelden with a grand central staircase flanked by two wings opening onto an inner courtyard. The facade features detailed arches and ornamental elements typical of Baroque design.

Prince-Bishop Lothar Franz von Schönborn commissioned this summer palace in 1711, with the main structure completed in 1718. It was built as an expression of princely power and prosperity during the Baroque period.

The gallery houses one of Germany's largest private Baroque art collections, featuring works by Rubens, Dürer, Titian, and Rembrandt. Visitors can see these masterpieces displayed throughout the palace's ornate rooms.

The palace is open to visitors from early April through late October, with musical performances held during the summer months. Beautiful gardens surround the estate, which are particularly pleasant to walk through in spring and summer.

The Mirror Hall, designed by Ferdinand Plitzner, is one of the oldest completely preserved mirror rooms in its original state. The mirrored walls reflect light in unexpected ways, creating a visual experience that visitors often overlook.
