Today, the palace serves as the headquarters of the administration of the State Palaces and Gardens of Hesse and is open to the public as a museum palace. The historic building also serves as the venue for the Bad Homburg Palace Concerts.

Landgravine Elisabeth Monument, Bad Homburg

Highlight • Monument

Elisabeth of Great Britain, Ireland and Hanover (1770–1840), Landgravine of Hesse-Homburg due to her marriage, earned herself high esteem as a supporter of the citizens and the city of Homburg, so that Victoria Empress Friedrich (1840–1901) ordered the erection of a monument her great-aunt suggested. Her son Kaiser Wilhelm II fulfilled his wish, but only after Victoria's death. The unveiling by him and his uncle, the British King Edward VII, took place in August 1908 in front of the apse of the English Church. The sculpture is a listed building.

Bad Homburg Market Square and Lantern Festival Fountain

Highlight • Monument

The Bad Homburg market square is located in the midst of historic-looking buildings. Residents and day visitors like to meet here. Whether at the weekly market or passing by on a shopping spree down Louisenstrasse, this is a truly lively place. In fact, the surrounding buildings were not built until 1907, when the market square was created. Homburg's great master builder, Louis Jacobi, personally designed the market arbours in the historic half-timbered style. The market people set up their stalls in the central area of the three-part group of houses. A closer look reveals a multitude of decorative elements on the building, such as grotesque masks.
