Fasanerie
Fasanerie (German: Schloss Fasanerie) is a baroque-style palace complex near Fulda, Germany, in Eichenzell. Originally built as a modest hunting lodge in the countryside for the Prince-Abbots of Fulda around 1710, it was significantly expanded and transformed into a grand residence in the mid-18th century. Following various shifts in ownership due to secularization and political changes, it became the private residence of the princely Hesse-Kassel family and served as a summer residence until the early 20th century. Damaged during the Second World War, the palace was restored and converted into a museum in 1972. Today, it houses one of Germany's most significant private art collections of classical art, along with exhibits of Baroque and 19th-century decor, including rare porcelain and historical portraits. The museum advertises itself as "most beautiful Baroque palace" of Hesse (German: Hessens schönstes Barockschloss).
