Germany: Schloss Wickrath

Last Monday I got a postcard from Germany.

It shows Schloss Wickrath. Schloss Wickrath is a palace in the Wickrath district of Mönchengladbach and was built between 1746 and 1772. Originally it consisted of a main palace and an outer ward, but the main palace was demolished in 1859 and was later replaced by a palatial residence for the stud master. It is today known for its equestrian tradition and its park, which was refurbished for the state horticultural show in 2002.


With a nice stamp:
Childhood Heroes (from set of two) (issued 05-12-2019)


Thank You very much Marcel!
