a walk through the palace's grand rooms is time travelling in style: the magnificent interiors offer a glimpse of life in the baroque, rococo and neoclassical eras. in these authentic period surroundings, imbued with a subtle sense of faded glory, you can relive the days when ludwigsburg was a regal residence and the centre of the duchy of württemberg. the schlosstheater (palace theatre) in the eastern wing is a particular highlight of the palace. with almost intact stage machinery and stage decoration, it is one of europe's oldest theatres. the four additional museums, which were opened on the palace's 300th anniversary in 2004, are further attractions.
