Palais of Princesses

Museum

The Princesses' Palace, once known as Villa "Waldheim," is a residence in Neuwied, Rhineland-Palatinate. It was a princely residence and is now an archaeological research center.

The construction of the Princesses' Palace took place in 1909, not far from the former Monrepos Castle. It served as the residence for the widow of Prince Wilhelm zu Wied and her daughters, Princess Elisabeth and Princess Luise. After Princess Luise's death in 1965, the building remained vacant. In 1979, it was the site of the police exercise "Loreley," involving over 400 officers and being the largest of its kind in the Federal Republic.
