ヘーロルツバッハの洞窟・トップ20

Behind the castle, a 280-meter-wide and 550-meter-long castle garden was created with an orangery (completed in 1706), Concordia Church (1706; now the Geological Institute), Huguenot fountain, equestrian statue and the now-defunct Hedge Theatre. The first self-contained, baroque courtly building ensemble in Franconia was created here. (Wikipedia)

This huge complex is impressive.

The castle in Forchheim (also called the Kaiserpfalz) was an important city castle of the Bishop of Bamberg in the city of Forchheim in Upper Franconia. The castle was built in the late 14th century. After extensive archaeological and architectural studies, it is one of the best researched structures of this period in Central Europe. Source: Wikipedia

At the end of the axis of the castle park, you will of course find the castle. Renovation work is currently taking place. Nevertheless, it is an eye-catcher

Beautiful castle in the middle of the old town with a wonderful adjacent park to relax and linger

Wiessenstein Castle in Pommersfelden was built between 1711 and 1718 under Lothar Franz von Schönborn, the Bamberg Prince-Bishop and Elector of Mainz in Pommersfelden near Bamberg as a private summer residence. It is regarded as the founding building of the Franconian Baroque and is still owned by the Schönborn family. A visit is absolutely worthwhile. Attention: Hourly guided tours! There is a good cafe nearby.

A Frankish royal court and a palace existed in Forchheim from the 9th to the early 11th century (see the chapter on the early history of Forchheim). However, their exact location is not known. In the late 19th century, the location was equated with that of the episcopal city castle and this was also referred to as the Palatinate or Imperial Palace. However, during archaeological investigations during the redevelopment from 1998 to 2004 no remains of an early medieval settlement were found at this point. However, the Palatinate is still seen in the more recent literature before Tillman Kohnert (2008) as a direct predecessor of the episcopal castle. The name Kaiserpfalz, which has been in use for decades, has also been retained and is used as the official name for the castle (Wikipedia).
