Thanks Elsa
While we're on the subject of the Schaumburg-Lippes, here is an aerial picture taken at the time of Fürst Alexander's wedding last year (the white marquee can be seen on the left). This home/schloss/palace/complex is quite something:

Indeed it is!
In this photo of yours, we can see the "inner patio", which is absolutely gorgeous... as everything else in this palace.

Schloss Arolsen in Bad Arolsen, of the Fuersts of Waldeck u. Pyrmont:

Facade from a distance

Great website with pictures of the castle, here.

From this wikipedia page:

The Baroque stately home, Schloss Arolsen, belonging originally to the Princes of Waldeck-Pyrmont with its imposing construction was built in the years 1713-1728 by architect Julius Ludwig Rothweil. Of particular importance are the ceiling paintings by the Italian artist Carlo Ludovici Castelli, and the outstanding stucco works by Andrea Gallasini.
