Tips

Color and shape belong together. The coloring supports the shape and gives it the finishing touch. Successful forms bring out the color particularly well. The Königshain palace complex offers this interplay and is therefore a special historical treasure in Upper Lusatia. It houses three stately residential buildings from different eras in a very small space. The oldest part of the ensemble is the Steinstock, a late Romanesque residential tower probably from the 13th/14th century. Right next to it is the Renaissance castle, next to which the remains of a moat can still be seen. The stately palace complex was built in the late Baroque style by Carl Adolph Gottlob von Schachmann in a restrained French style. The associated park is baroque, but already gives an idea of the transition to the landscape gardens with English influence. The historic park was supplemented by a rhododendron garden and invites you to linger. Source: museum-oberlausitz.de
