Schloss Engers, Baroque castle and museum on Rhine riverbank, Neuwied, Germany.

The Schloss Engers showcases Rococo architecture with ornate decorations, luxurious furnishings, and detailed frescoes throughout its grand halls and chambers.

Built between 1759 and 1762 under Johann Philipp von Walderdorff, the Electoral Prince of Trier, this palace replaced the medieval Kunostein Castle from the 14th century.

The palace houses Villa Musica, a foundation of the Rheinland-Palatinate Academy of Chamber Music, which organizes concerts and supports young classical musicians.

The museum displays collections of historical musical instruments and paintings of the Prince-Electors of Trier, with guided tours available throughout the week.

The Hall of Diana contains original 18th-century frescoes created by renowned artists Michael Eytel and Januarius Zick during the palace construction.
