The old revered, the new reinforced - The Hohenstaufen renovate Charlemagne's palace

Unlike the Ottonians, the Hohenstaufen rulers of the 12th and 13th centuries rarely visited the Ingelheim imperial palace. Nevertheless, they extensively renovated the palace district. In particular, Emperor Friedrich I Barbarossa is associated with the extensive construction work in the Palatinate. On a tour of the hall area, you can find out what prompted the Hohenstaufen to expand Charlemagne's Palatinate and convert it into a fortified castle.
