Palais Papius, City palace in Wetzlar, Germany.
The two-story baroque palace features a light-plastered facade with a stone-encased arched entrance leading to a rectangular inner courtyard.
Built around 1740 by Johann Conrad Heeser von Lilienthal, the palace expanded into a four-wing structure in 1756 under Johann Hermann Franz von Pape.
The palace houses European furniture collections from the 15th to 18th centuries, including pieces from Italy, France, the Netherlands, and Germany.
Visitors can explore the palace through guided tours or using audio guides, which are available at the tourist information office at Domplatz 8.
The palace displays a large tapestry from 1450-1470 with intricate pomegranate bud designs made using silk and metallic threads.
