Monaise Palace

Germany / Rheinland-Pfalz / Konz /
 restaurant, castle

Between 1779 and 1783, the Dean of Trier Cathedral, Philipp Franz Count of Walderdorff had a summer residence built on the west bank of the Moselle in the style of early French neo-classicism. The architect engaged was the French master builder François Ignace Mangin. Situated directly on the bank of the Moselle, the residence faces northeast and thus lies in the direct line of sight to Trier. The name Monaise means "my leisure", pointing to the original function of the palace as a summer residence. www.trier-info.de
