Baldachin

From Middle High German baldekīn, from Italian baldacchino, derived from Baldacca (“the city of Baghdad”), from Arabic بَغْداد (baḡdād), from Middle Persian. The modern German spelling and pronunciation through readaptation to the Italian form, likely reinforced by association with Dach (“roof”).
