That's in Karlsruhe, capital of the grand duchy of Baden, in the German Empire. It was the day of the engagement of Princess Viktoria Luise with Princ Ernst August, February 11th 1913; the third person on the photo is Prince Oskar of Prussia (1888–1958), one of Viktoria Luise's six brothers. In the background the grand duke's palace.

LGR109: thanks for identifying the location of the photograph and the building. We will add this information to the description of the image.

If my sight is correct: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Princess_Viktoria_Luise_of_Prussia and en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Duchess_Cecilie_of_Mecklenburg-Schw... so the photo was probably made between 1905 and 1913.

Princess Viktoria is a wonderful princess.
