Synopsis
Contributing Authors

A richly illustrated introduction to the immense variety of stately homes and parks in Germany, from Lake Constance to the Baltic Sea. A journey of discovery through almost 100 castles and abbeys, palaces and mansions, parks and gardens, many of them UNESCO World Heritage Sites.

Germany is a country of palaces and castles, of abbeys, parks and gardens. They define our regions, give our cultural landscapes their unmistakable character, and create a sense of home and belonging, of regional rootedness and touristic flair. They offer leisure and regeneration; they are centres of culture and communication; and for the cultural historian they are an indispensable, tangible archive.
