Description
Richly decorated Friedrichsbau (The Friedrich Building), one of the most interesting residential palaces at Heidelberg Castle in Heidelberg, Germany.
Friedrichsbau was built by Prince-Elector Friedrich IV between 1601 and 1607 on the pedestal of a previous medieval structure. The electoral family lived on the two top floors, and the attic floor was reserved for the servants.
On top of the Friedrichsbau is a sandstone sculpture of Lady Justice and in the niches across the facade are the generations of Palatine Prince Electors of the Rhine who ruled the Kingdom of Germany from 915 until 1803.
