1Schloss Benrath

Found just south of Düsseldorf, this pink paradise served as a pleasure palace for Elector Palatine Charles Theodore, who ruled over Bavaria during the 18th century.

French architect Nicolas de Pigage spent almost 20 years perfecting the three-winged manor and its bountiful flowerbeds, soaring trees, and extravagant canal across the property’s 148 acres.
