[edit] Old Royal Palace
| Piece | Text |
|---|---|
| The Old Royal Palace, nicknamed the White Palace, dates from 1874 and was the former official residence of the Lovian monarchs. It is located in King's Gardens, on the same terrain as the other Palaces, and was constructed as the residence for King Arthur I. After the king passed away it officially became the Royal Palace. In 1954 King Lucas I moved the Supreme Court to this palace in Noble City, but this decision was reversed the following year. The palace is richly decorated by famous Lovian artists. Several royal collections of great historical importance are kept at the palace, including the Royal Armoury and its weapons, the world's only complete Stradivarius string quintet, as well as collections of tapestry, porcelain, furniture and other objects of art of great historical importance.

[edit] Palati Daidalo
| Piece | Text |
|---|---|
| The Palati Daidalo - The building of the Palati Daidalo started in 1990 and ended in 2007, when King Dimitri I moved in. Some parts of the palace, such as the Wine Cellar are much older and were possibly built by the first settlers of Lovia. It was the royal palace of Lovia until May 4, 2008. King Dimitri I was crowned here on November 9, 2007, instead of in the Old Royal Palace. It is situated in the King's Gardens, a Noble City neighborhood. Maquette by the DoCHE |
| The Interior - Palati Daidalo was divideable in three parts: the West Wing, the The Great Hall or Central Hall and the East Wing. The Central Hall was the entree hall, including the reception. The West Wing was the public part of the royal palace. It was used for banquets, public evenements, concerts, audiences, meetings etc. The crowning of King Dimitri I as well took place in the West Wing. The East Wing contained the private quarters of the royal family. Fotographs by the DoCHE |
| Crowning of Dimitri I - On 20u30, on the 9th of november, King Dimitri I was crowned in the great hall of the Palati Daidalo. The palace forms now his residence and the Old Royal Palace will be rebuild, probably to an historical museum. During the crowning there weren't any media present. King Dimitri prefered a sober and quiet ceremony. King Dimitri was crowned without having a queen, for many royalty-fans a great disappointment. The royal crown will also be relocated to this palace.

| The Fire - The night of 3 March 2008, the palace's kitchen caught fire, for still unknown reasons. Firefighters were at the palace almost half an hour after the start of the fire and some rooms were already entirely destroyed. Firefighters were too little in number and the fire didn't stop whatsoever. By 6 AM the firefighters managed to exhaust all fire. The entire palace was destroyed, except for some remainings of the ancient Wine Cellar and small parts of the West Wing. Most of the surrounding garden burnt down as well.

[edit] Great Royal Palace

| The Great Royal Palace - This Palace is a Lovian landmark and the most recent Lovian royal palace, that was built shortly after the former palace burned down in May 2008. It was designed by Pierlot McCrooke of the Achtectus architectural bureau. The monarch, King Dimitri I, started residing in the new palace shortly after it was furnished in June 2008. The new design is remarkably smaller than the former royal palace. Other designs proposed by Achtectus were based on several European palaces, but were all declined by HRH, because they were too bombastic or too large. Maquette by the DoCHE |
[edit] King Gardens

| The Front Gardens - These gardens surround the Great Royal Palace in King's Gardens, Noble City. There were to be placed statues in these gardens and traveling around the world, searching for the right statues to be placed in the center of the Front Gardens, Lars Washington eventually discovered on February 9, 2008 two magnificant bronze sculptures of Mercury.

| The Maze - The Maze is one of the gardens surrounding the Great Royal Palace in King's Gardens, Noble City. The Maze was officially opened on Wednesday January 16, 2008 in presence of HRH King Dimitri I from Lovia, PM Yuri Medvedev, Sr. Robin V. Ferguson and Sr. Lars Washington. It is a secret of how Lars Washington managed the first picture being taken from the balcony on the second floor in the eastern wing of the Palati Daidalo without HRH becoming suspicious or even alarmed by the unusual behaviour of his butler suddenly disappearing whilst organizing the dressing of the dinner table in the Apollon Salon.
