The history of the Residence building began in 1110. In this year, Archbishop Conrad I decided to give his old quarters back to the monks of St. Peter and started building a new domicile for himself right across from the cathedral. Since then, numerous archbishops have added their own ideas. As the clerical figureheads were extremely rich, it features an abundance of gold, priceless furniture and velvet carpets. The luxurious rooms can still be viewed today. An extensive building, it offers a splendid view of the Old Town, is home to a gallery, and plays host to a number of political meetings.
