Wilhelmshöhe Castle is located in the Wilhelmshöhe mountain park in Kassel. The castle, designed in the classicism style from 1786 to 1798, was built for Landgrave Wilhelm IX. (from 1803 Elector Wilhelm I). It is internationally known for its current use as a museum, which contains, among other things, the antique collection and the Old Masters Picture Gallery. The museum in the Weißenstein wing with the only authentic remaining rooms of the landgraves is also very important. Since June 23, 2013, the Wilhelmshöhe mountain park and the castle have been a UNESCO world heritage site. (Source: Wikipedia)

Several museums and collections are housed in Wilhelmshöhe Palace: in the middle section is the famous picture gallery of the old masters, the collection of antiquities and the graphic collection. The castle museum can be found in the Weißenstein wing. And the chapel in the church wing is popular for weddings.

Woooow, like a movie set. The sight knocks every ambitious hiker's socks off 😍

Only online viewing, that's really annoying if you had a long journey. Well, you could have informed yourself in advance on the website. But all the beauties around it make it a nice experience anyway.

Impressive building, which can also be visited. There is a locality next to the main building. If you step out of the main entrance you have a sensational view over the park area up to the Hercules.

Nice paths to the top, with a very steep incline

Unfortunately, the castle is currently being renovated, but a tour around it and through the castle garden is still worthwhile. 🥾🥾

Landgrave Wilhelm IX had the mountain park redesigned and expanded according to the English-influenced spirit of the time. This also included the Löwenburg Castle, which was built as a ruin in 1793. The habitable ruin was his personal retreat and was also intended to be his grave, where he still lies today. Kassel was exposed to heavy bombings during the Second World War, which also severely damaged the Löwenburg. It was only rebuilt for practical purposes. The facility is now being restored again and will then look exactly as it did when it was founded. Due to the restoration work, only the armory and the chapel can currently be visited (2022). This is done exclusively through guided tours, which take place every hour.
