Schloss Detmold, Renaissance castle in Detmold, Germany.

The four-wing complex features a Renaissance-style keep, multi-storey oriel windows, and an entrance marked by ancestral coats of arms on the parapet.

Built between 1560 and 1575 as the residence for the counts of Lippe, the castle replaced an earlier moated fortress from the 13th century.

The King's Rooms display Brussels-woven tapestries from 1670 depicting scenes from Alexander the Great's life, representing noble lifestyle of past centuries.

Guided tours operate from April to October between 10 am and 5 pm, while winter hours extend from 10 am to 4 pm with adult admission at six euros.

Prince Stefan and his family maintain residence in sections of the castle, continuing the legacy of the House of Lippe that began in 1468.
