Schloss Friedrichsthal, Baroque château in Gotha, Germany.
The three-story palace stands east of Friedenstein Palace, featuring a central pediment and decorative fence surrounding the main structure.
Frederick II, Duke of Saxe-Gotha-Altenburg commissioned the construction of Schloss Friedrichsthal between 1708 and 1711 under architect Wolf Christoph Zorn von Plobsheim.
The palace functioned as Gotha's state ministry until 1918, after which it served as a district office until 1945.
The Gotha city administration maintains ownership of the building, and visitors should contact them directly for current access information.
Prince Albert and Queen Victoria visited this summer residence during their lifetime, marking its status among European nobility.
