Grosssedlitz Baroque Garden

On the Trail of

Augustus the Strong Discover the celebratory and hunting culture of the Baroque at original sites and walk in the footsteps of Augustus the Strong. Allow to be invited to the pleasure and hunting estates of the Saxon Elector Augustus the Strong, which were once created by the famous architect Matthaeus Leipzig 29 Dresden 34 Daniel Poeppelmann.

Chemnitz

34 PILLNITZ CASTLE AND PARK

Augustus the Strong

once acquired Pillnitz Castle for his mistress Countess Cosel.

When she later fell out of his favour, Augustus had the hillside and waterside palaces built after plans by Poeppelmann. On the castle and park estate, one can find, apart from the Museum for Crafts and Arts, the Castle Museum and the Palm-tree Greenhouse, the 250-year-old Japanese camellia. 16 GROSSSEDLITZ BAROQUE GARDEN

Moritzburg Castle

Augustus the Strong planned a Saxon Versailles

in Grosssedlitz. Those 12 ha make Grosssedlitz the most significant piece of garden art of 18th-century Saxony, and not only for its largest collection of bitter orange trees in German-speaking lands.

12 THE DRESDEN ZWINGER

In 1709, Poeppelmann

was assigned by Augustus the Strong with building an orangery in the Dresden Zwinger garden. Later on, the idea emerged to use the estate also for festivities.

Pillnitz Castle and Park

29 MORITZBURG CASTLE

The Dresden Zwinger

The present-day

layout of the estate in its magnificent symmetry of Baroque splendour goes back to Augustus the Strong and his senior master builder Poeppelmann. The castle displays Europe’s largest collection of hunting trophies, for example, and the unique Feather Room.

Meissen Albrechtsburg Castle

Porcelain – White Gold How an apothecary changed the world: It is a story written by people driven by curiosity, thirst for knowledge and the taste for beautiful things.

Its contributing characters were Elector Augustus the Strong, the apothecary Johann Friedrich Boettger and the scholar Ehrenfried Walther von Tschirnhaus. From then on, the Elector suffered from a hardly insatiable Leipzig 26 9 Dresden 12 illness – the »maladie de porcelaine«, the Chemnitz porcelain disease.

Boettger invented the European hard-paste porcelain in January 1708. In the Dresden Fortress, one can still explore the canon yards and Dresden’s oldest preserved town gate. 26 MEISSEN ALBRECHTSBURG CASTLE

Soon thereafter, in 1710,

Augustus the Strong relocated the manufactory to Albrechtsburg Castle in Meissen. The time of the first porcelain manufactory in Europe is revived in the new permanent exhibition: Those who keep their eyes open can follow thrilling stories of the history of porcelain-making. What is also of great interest is the digital labo-

ratory: Try your hand in making porcelain! 12 THE DRESDEN ZWINGER

The full splendour of the white gold can

be admired in the Porcelain Collections of the Dresden State Art Collections in the Zwinger. The collection was founded by Augustus the Strong in 1715 and currently includes about 20,000 pieces of porcelain art. Not only life-size animals of porcelain from the Meissen production are on display, but also finest traditional East-Asian porcelain.

Boettger drew the attention

to himself with a true piece of make-believe: He pretended to be able to make gold. The casemates in the Dresden Fortress were found a place fit for that purpose. Assisted by von Tschirnhaus, 4

Let yourself be impressed by Count

Pueckler-Muskau’s »Nature Painting«. In the 840-ha park that has been listed as German-Polish World Heritage since 2004, one can see, for example, the dwarf horse chestnut and the bald cypress. 1 ALTZELLA MONASTERY PARK

What used

to be a Cistercian abbey was redesigned in 1798 into an estate of English landscape style. The burial place of the Wettin dynasty can be found there. The park is especially attractive in spring when liverwort, cowslip and thimbleweed blossom.

At the end of the
