Fulda City Palace

A good place to visit in the city of Fulda. Has some very nice paintings and frescoes

I was able to use my student discount to visit the Stadtschloss Fulda, and to be fair, the ticket prices weren't that high. However, navigating the palace was quite challenging as there was no clear guidance, and we ended up getting lost on the upper floors. When we asked about leaving our coats, we were only directed to lockers that required coins. The map we were given at the entrance was very confusing, and since the reception staff only spoke German, we got lost multiple times and didn't even realize we hadn't seen the main part of the palace! We only stumbled upon the main museum area by chance when we opened a random door. On the positive side, the palace was very quiet and not crowded at all, which allowed us to wander around and spend as much time as we wanted. The Stadtschloss itself is a Baroque palace built in the early 18th century as the residence for the Prince-Abbots and later Prince-Bishops of Fulda. It has a rich history, evolving from an earlier abbot's castle.

Well worth a visit if you happen to visit Fulda. Well restored baroque palace of the former Prince-Abbott, now serving as city council compound. Includes a wonderful porcelain collection from the Fulda Manufactory. They have a leaflet with a map in English but the rest is in German; I guess most Baroque art can be enjoyed without reading the captions.

Given the position and importance of the former prince-abbots of Fulda, I expected something more grandiose. There we’re occupied offices where staff worked throughout. The rooms and decor were at times austere. The price of admission was very low less than 4E.

Lovely. They were in the process of landscaping so couldn't get good pics. Climbed the tower and saw a beautiful view as well. Couldn't tour inside the palace as it was closed on Mondays 😞

Lovely palace. Well-preserved. I'm basing my review not on the beauty of the palace but on the functionality as a museum. Since the building houses city hall and office workers, you have to weave through some office space to see certain sites. There are no descriptions of the rooms or the very few items in the rooms. Not in English. Not in German. None. So I just wander about with a map in my hand to see pretty rooms. Otherwise I really learn nothing. They need to get a real museum curator in there to address the best way to turn a pretty palace into a real museum.

Great place to visit in Fulda Deutschland, it has allot of history and the audio guides helps you understand the origen of this beautiful Castle. It is also use for wedding.

Nice smaller baroque era palace. € 2.3 student ticket. Took me about 1 hour to walk relaxed through the whole place. Though, unfortunately not much info is given about the rooms or displayed pieces, and none at all in english. Still very nice to visit.
