Open-air theater next to the castle tower

An impressive building. Napoleon is said to have cursed it. He apparently saw a ghost in the night.

It looks rather run down and is beginning to decay. I am curious to see if any investment will be made.

"Ce maudit château!" - "This cursed castle!" is what Napoleon Bonaparte is said to have said in horror after he spent the night of May 15-16, 1812 in the New Palace. The ghost of the "White Lady of Himmelkron" had appeared to him there. It is also possible that the castellan had played a joke on the Emperor of the French. Relevant items such as chains, rattles and a white robe were later found in his estate.

The romantic stage at the castle tower in Bad Berneck is located at the foot of the old castle with its castle tower. Several passages (wicket gate, Gothic gate) and a large castle gate connect the stage area with the castle hill behind it. Various rock paths that lead to the castle kennel, which is about 25 meters above the stage, allow the castle ruins to be included in the game. The historicizing design of the complex, which was built at the beginning of the 20th century, meant that the stage system was at times incorrectly viewed in specialist literature as part of the castle's construction period.

The “Italian Building” was built after 1759 for the Margrave's second wife, Sophie Caroline Marie of Braunschweig-Wolfenbüttel, as a stand-alone building south of the castle and only later structurally connected to the New Palace through a connecting wing. The architect was Rudolf Heinrich Richter, who, unlike Saint-Pierre, allowed the formal splendor of the interior decoration created by Giovanni Battista Pedrozzi to spill over onto the outer walls. The young Carl von Gontard succeeded in uniting the two fundamentally different buildings using a discreetly projecting connecting link with a round balcony.[1] At the beginning of the 1990s, the facades of the Italian building were renovated and its courtyard area was redesigned To the north of the main building, across Glasenappweg, is the former kitchen building, a single, two-story house with a hipped roof. From 1867 to 1908 the secondary school for girls was housed there,[4] later the municipal auxiliary school. When it was founded on October 1, 1920, the municipal commercial school moved into the building that the Bavarian Crown Estate Administration had given it. Although the location was only approved as a temporary arrangement, the business school remained until 1938.[5] Today a shopping arcade leads through the building to Richard-Wagner-Straße.

Very nicely prepared castle with a beautiful view of Bad Berneck.

The new castle with the court garden is one of the castles from the Margrave era in Bayreuth. It is located right in the city center and can be visited.
