Friedenskuss – Kiss of Peace

September 6, 2020 by Henk Bekker

Friedenskuss (kiss of peace)

Schloss Friedenstein (literally Stone of Peace Castle) in Gotha is the largest surviving early Baroque palace in Germany. The castle was named in honor of the Peace of Westphalia (1648) that brought peace to Germany after 30 years of war. A Friedenskuss (kiss of peace) portrayal on a shield confirmed the name above the main entrance of the palace (facing the old town).
