Schloss Weißenstein, Baroque palace in Pommersfelden, Germany.
The palace features a grand central staircase flanked by two wings that open towards an inner courtyard through detailed archways.
Lothar Franz von Schönborn ordered the construction of this summer residence in 1711, with completion of the main structure in 1718.
The palace gallery contains Germany's largest private Baroque art collection, including works by Rubens, Dürer, Titian, and Rembrandt.
Visitors can tour the palace and its grounds from early April through late October, with musical performances held during July and August.
The Mirror Hall, designed by Ferdinand Plitzner, remains the oldest completely preserved mirror room in its original condition.
