The Ducal Palace Museum

The picture shows the Residence Palace in Braunschweig in the evening. The building is large and brightly lit. In front of it, there is an equestrian statue. The sky is blue with many clouds. Cars drive by on the street, their lights leave trails. The atmosphere is calm and dignified.

The Ducal Palace, an imposing 19th century building, was badly damaged in World War II and was then completely demolished in 1960. Between 2005 and 2007 the building was reconstructed using many of its original elements. The palace accomodates the »Schlossmuseum« displaying the eventful history of this Guelph Residential Palace.
