Oldenburg - Castle and Parc

The facad of the castle in Oldenburg is built in style of the Renaissance, although I think some of the decorations must be from the time of the Baroque ...
A count lived here from 1607 - 1667, afterwards it became an administrative headquarter of the Dane´s. Nowadays the building is used as museum, Landesmuseum für Kunst und Kulturgeschichte Oldenburg.
The castle´s parc is on the other side of a big street, and it is a nice quite place in the midst of the busy town.

Royalty

It was a grey saturday, but I wanted to go somewhere and take some pictures. Round about 100 km from where I live is the little town Bückeburg. It has a castle, Schloss Bückeburg, and a real prince (Fürst Alexander zu Schaumburg-Lippe) who lives in this castle with his family. I´m glad I only saw his cars.

 

I paid the price for admittance and additionally I paid 5,00 € for the golden badge - the admission to take pics. So, my friends, take a look at the photos I made, I paid the price for you :) Oh no, wrong! I paid a part of Fürst Alexanders petrol costs :)
