Royal Stables

The Commander-in-Chief of the Electoral Palatinate, Prince Friederich of Pfalz-Zweibrücken, had the royal stables built in 1750/52. The complex of buildings was bought in 1759 by Prince Elector Carl Theodor, who had it extended. From 1803, after the Electoral Palatinate was disestablished and the territories right of the Rhine ceded to the Grand Duchy of Baden, the stables served the Baden Life Dragoons as barracks (today they are in private and commercial use). Particularly noteworthy is the magnificent electoral coat of arms above the central passage.
