The Frescoes in the Stairwell of the Würzburg Residence are a masterful series of large-scale paintings created by the renowned Italian painter Giovanni Battista Tiepolo (1696–1770). These frescoes adorn the grand staircase of the Würzburg Residence, a palace in Würzburg, Bavaria, Germany, which was designed by the architects Balthasar Neumann and others as a residence for the Prince-Bishops of Würzburg. The frescoes are particularly famous for their depiction of the "Apotheosis of the Prince-Bishop," a theme that glorifies the rule and virtues of the prince-bishop, who was the secular and spiritual leader of the region during the time the frescoes were created.

Completed in 1753, Tiepolo's frescoes are considered one of the finest examples of Baroque ceiling painting and are a significant contribution to the Rococo style. The central fresco, measuring an impressive 18 by 30 meters, is one of the largest ceiling frescoes ever painted. It depicts the allegorical figure of the prince-bishop being welcomed into the pantheon of the gods, symbolizing his ascent to divine status. The composition is a dynamic interplay of figures, both real and mythological, with a masterful use of perspective that creates an illusion of three-dimensional space on the two-dimensional surface of the ceiling.

The frescoes are celebrated for their vivid color palette, dramatic lighting, and the sense of movement conveyed by the figures. Tiepolo's use of chiaroscuro and his ability to manipulate light and shadow contribute to the lifelike quality of the scenes. The stairwell frescoes are a testament to Tiepolo's skill in handling large-scale compositions and his ability to integrate his work into the architectural context.

As a UNESCO World Heritage Site, the Würzburg Residence and its frescoes attract visitors from around the world. The frescoes have been meticulously restored to preserve their original splendor and continue to be a subject of study for art historians and enthusiasts of Baroque art. Tiepolo's work at the Würzburg Residence remains a pinnacle of his artistic career and a significant cultural treasure of 18th-century European art.
