Your photos of this stately castle are strong. The painting inside a most impressive. The whole site must be a museum.

I just looked it up. It IS a museum...a prince-bishopric, hence the religious artwork. though I'm not sure what a prince-bishopric is. Some combination of the sacred and the profane I guess. Calls for more research. Thanks for the photos.
