The Imperial Castle in Poznań, popularly called Zamek, "the Castle" , is a palace in Poznań, Poland. It was built under German rule in 1910 by Franz Schwechten for William II, German Emperor, with substantial suggestions from the Emperor.
The name of this structure is misleading, as the building is a palace rather than a castle. Another difference arises from the adjective imperial preferred by the Poles and royal used by the Germans. The German name refers to William II as King of Prussia, in this function he built the palace as his provincial residence, while the Polish name refers to him as Emperor of Germany because the term "royal" is reserved for Poznań's Royal Castle, home to the early medieval Kings of Poland.
