Bischofspfalz, Medieval bishop's residence in Bamberg, Germany
The Bischofspfalz building complex features multiple interconnected structures with high stone walls, gothic windows, and decorated archways along its perimeter.
From the Middle Ages until the 18th century, this palace served as the administrative center and residence for the Prince-Bishops who ruled Bamberg.
The palace houses the Diocesan Museum, which displays ecclesiastical artifacts, medieval sculptures, and religious artworks from the Bamberg Cathedral treasury.
Visitors can access the complex through guided tours daily from 9 AM to 5 PM, with specialized history tours available in German and English.
The inner courtyard contains stone markers indicating the original foundations of earlier medieval structures that preceded the current building complex.
