Schloss Nordkirchen is a palace situated in the town of Nordkirchen in the Coesfeld administrative district in the state of North Rhine Westphalia, Germany. The schloss was largely built between 1703 and 1734 and is known as the "Versailles of Westphalia" since it is the largest of the fully or partly moated Wasserschlösser in that region. It was originally one of the residences of the Prince-Bishopric of Münster.

Well, how would you look at Osborne House, the private residence Victoria and Albert had built for themselves around 1850 and in Italianate style on the Isle of Wight? A place of calm where they would recover from the strenuous business of being Queen and representing the royal and quite imperial first family of what then was a world power. I find the boar, this symbol of wilderness and ferociousness (the pig, profoundly unacceptable in some traditions), quite adequate. After all, imperial rule and colonialism were brutal in essence. But then, you would perhaps expect me to say this because I am an old republican. In this matter, one can have many points of view. Fuji X100F.

Prince Asakanomiya Yasuhiko (朝香宮鳩彦 1887-1981), a son-in-law of Emperor Meiji, was a general of the Japanese Imperial Army. His residence was built in 1933 on the site of a former Edo residence of the Matsudaira (松平) family that had their Han (藩 domain) in Takamatsu in the Shikoku island.
He studied in France and became fascinated with the French culture. He hired Henri Rapin, a French art déco artist, to design the interior.
Asakanomiya narrowly avoided being named a war criminal, but was purged from holding any political and public offices after the WW II by the order of GHQ of the US-led occupation forces. His imperial family status was also abolished.
The mansion occupying a primary location in the Yamanote terrace was seized by the government and sold to the Seibu Group in 1950. It had been used as a guesthouse of the Ikebukuro-based railways, retail and hotel group until 1975.
Seibu also purchased his villa in Karuizawa, a famous hill station in the Nagano prefecture, and converted it to Karuizawa Prince Hotel.
Seibu tried to built another Prince Hotel in Prince Asakanomiya's residence, but gave it up finally due to a strong local opposition. Seibu sold the property to the Tokyo prefecture in 1981, and the prefecture converted it to the Metropolitan Teien Art Museum (都立庭園美術館) as it is today.
