Würzburg - Residenz

In the spacious Residenzplatz in Würzburg is the Residenz, the palace of the Prince-Bishops, one of the finest Baroque secular buildings in Germany (built 1719-44, mainly under the direction of Bathasar Neumann). The most notable features of the palace are the monumental staircase hall, with a huge fresco by Tiepolo, the White Hall, with Roccoco stucco work, the sumptuously decorated Imperial Hall, the Hall of Mirrors and the beautiful Court Church. In the south wing is the Martin von Wagner Museum (collection of antiquities, picture gallery, print cabinet). Behind the Residenz lies the Hofgarten (18th C.).
