Schloss Bekond, Baroque country palace in Bekond, Germany.

The palace features a U-shaped layout with a three-story central section and two wings, crowned by hipped roofs and decorated sandstone window frames.

The original water castle from 1653 was transformed into the current structure in 1709 under the direction of Trier Cathedral Provost Joseph Franz von Kesselstatt.

The northeastern residential tower displays traditional German baroque architecture with its characteristic onion dome and sandstone corner elements.

The palace grounds include an orangerie built in 1732 that remains available for contemporary events and celebrations throughout the year.

The entrance portal incorporates red sandstone craftsmanship with an ornate coat of arms positioned above a broken round gable arrangement.
