Object description:
New Residence in Bamberg
Together with the cathedral and the adjacent Old Court (Alte Hofhaltung), the New Residence on the cathedral square forms the spiritual and secular centre of Bamberg, a World Heritage site. It was built from 1604 in two different phases. The two Baroque wings that still dominate the cathedral square today were created from 1697 to 1703 under Lothar Franz von Schönborn.
Imperial Hall
Three state apartments with precious art and furniture, the Baroque Imperial Hall, which is one of the most outstanding Baroque interiors of southern Germany, two state galleries with masterpieces of Baroque and Old German art (Branch of the Bavarian State Galleries) and a charming Rose Garden are open to visitors in the Residence complex.
