Residence Museum in the Celle Palace

The Residence Museum occupies several floors of Celle Palace, displaying period furniture, decorative arts, and historical artifacts from the Guelph dynasty.

From the 14th century until 1705, Celle Palace served as the residence of the Dukes of Braunschweig-Lüneburg, shaping the development of the region.

The State Apartments contain original baroque chambers where Duke Georg Wilhelm and his wife Eléonore d'Olbreuse maintained their court during the 17th century.

The museum opens Tuesday through Sunday from 10:00 to 17:00, offering guided tours that include access to the Renaissance palace chapel and state rooms.

The museum preserves the private chambers of Danish Queen Caroline Mathilde, who lived her final years in exile at Celle Palace during the 1770s.
