Residenzmuseum im Celler Schloss

Walking through the princely rooms of Celle's palace, you follow the story of the Welfs, who ruled from here from the 15th century until 1705. The museum introduces the court under the heading "From Castle to Residence" and shows life at court, with portraits of the Welf family and fine furniture. The baroque apartments of Duke Georg Wilhelm, the last duke to reside in Celle, and his wife Eleonore d'Olbreuse are open to visit, their stucco ceilings the work of Italian masters.
