Schloss Mergentheim, Renaissance palace in Bad Mergentheim, Germany

The Mergentheim Palace stands as a grand complex of Renaissance and Baroque buildings with two distinct rings covering 3,000 square meters of space.

In 1219, the Teutonic Order received the castle, which later became their headquarters in 1527 and remained so until Napoleon dissolved the order in 1809.

The palace museum exhibits collections of antiquities, documents the history of the Teutonic Knights, and presents local Jewish history through the Fechenbach brothers' story.

The palace museum opens daily except Mondays, featuring guided tours through various halls, chambers, and the palace church with its notable frescoes.

The palace contains a remarkable spiral staircase designed by Blasius Berwart, connecting different levels within the Renaissance section of the building.
