Balthasar Neumann (1687(")- 1753), was a German architect who developed a new concept of Baroque architecture fused with Austrian, Bohemian, Italian, and French elements. He became the architect of some of the most impressive buildings of the period such as the Würzburg Residence and the Basilica of the Fourteen Holy Helpers in this new style. Accordingly, he is considered as the most prominent architect of the late Baroque architecture.

Neumann took his first big step in his career under Johann Philipp Franz von Schönborn (Prince-Bishop of Würzburg). He asked Neumann to design the Würzburg Residence in 1720 which later became his life’s work.

The Würzburg Residence is regarded as one of the most elegant and well proportioned palaces in Europe.
