The article is long enough and new enough. The hook is supported with inline reference. The photo is public domain. There are just a couple close paraphrasing issues that need to be addressed. Also, I recommend removing less-interesting details from the hook. How about:ALT1 ... that the Wiesbaden City Palace (pictured) in Germany has survived two revolutions and both World Wars to become the home of the Hessian State Parliament?

- close paraphrasing from translation fixed, except in cases where formal titles are involved. When doing that I realized the whole thing suffered from minor redundancies, so did a copyedit to clean up. New hook is fine, I'd suggest leaving in the 145-room but take out the "richly decorated" bloat.
- ALT2 ... that the 145-room Wiesbaden City Palace (pictured) in Germany has survived two revolutions and both World Wars to become the home of the Hessian State Parliament?
