Saarbrücken Palace is a first-rate attraction and the historic heart of the state capital. The rock above the Saar was already fortified in the 10th century.

The Baroque palace visible today was designed by court architect Friedrich Joachim Stengel in the 18th century. Its striking modern glazed central pavilion, added in the 1980s, sets a bold contrast, and the Historical Museum Saar with its casemates lies directly beneath the palace square.
