Drostei, Rococo city palace in Pinneberg, Germany

The Drostei exhibits ornate architectural details with curved forms, gilded elements, and pastel colors throughout its exterior and interior spaces.

Built in 1767 for Hans von Ahlefeldt, the palace served as residence for Danish king Christian VII during his 1769 visit to Pinneberg.

Three architects, Ernst Georg Sonnin, Georg Greggenhofer, and Cai Dose, collaborated to create this Rococo masterwork in Schleswig-Holstein.

The palace functions as a cultural center for Pinneberg district, hosting art exhibitions, concerts, readings, and educational programs for children.

The building underwent extensive renovations in 1984 to restore its original architectural features after serving various administrative functions.
