Siegesplatz is a baroque palace within Engelberg, the capital city of the Englean Empire.
The palace was built at the request of Emperor Friedrich Wilhelm I, wishing to create a large permanent residence for the imperial family that would replace Engelberg Castle which had been the official residence of the imperial family since 1135.
