Weikersheim Palace, Renaissance palace in Weikersheim, Germany.

The palace features a Renaissance banquet hall with original furnishings and an extensive garden filled with stone statues and ornamental elements.

Built in the 12th century as a medieval castle, Count Wolfgang transformed the structure into a Renaissance palace between 1586 and 1605.

The palace houses an exhibition about alchemy in its former kitchen, highlighting Count Wolfgang II von Hohenlohe's scientific experiments and laboratory.

The double-winged orangery stretches nearly 100 meters in length and marks the transition between the formal garden and natural landscape.

The Knight's Hall contains speaking portraits that tell stories about the palace's history through audio installations.
