Transbaltian royal residences are palaces, castles and houses occupied by members of the Transbaltian royal and ducal families in the Grand Duchy of Transbaltia. Some, like Tavliga Palace and Runesburg Palace, are owned by the Royal or Ducal crowns (ownership by the Grand Duke or Duke is by virtue of his or her position.), while others like Kastroka Castle and Woltenburg Manor are personally owned and have been passed down for generations. Some royal palaces, such as the Palace of Borstadt, are no longer residences but serve government, historical or cultural purposes. Some remain in irregular use for royal occasions, such as Hansburghof in Konigshafen.

  • Tavliga Palace. Located in Tavliga it is the seat of the Grand Duke. It was constructed between 1780 and 1789 for Grand Duke Otto I, and was marveled as one of the largest royal residences in the world.
  • Runesburg Palace. Located in rural Cisvilia, it is the retreat of the Grand Duke. It was constructed for Grand Duke Augustus, the consort of Transbaltia and the Elector of Runesburg in Dolchland.
  • Palace of Borstadt. Also located in Tavliga. It was constructed to house the royal court and the royal estate, and has since become the seat of the Kanzler.
