The approximately 13 meter high "pyramid" is the landmark of the park created by the landscape architect Hermann Fürst von Pückler-Muskau (1785-1871). The lake pyramid has been the prince's burial site since 1871. In 1884, Princess Lucie von Pückler-Muskau (1776-1854) was relocated from the old Branitz village cemetery to the pyramid.

Prince Pückler has been resting here in the lake pyramid since February 1871. This unusual grave impresses with an edge length of over 35m and a height of over 13m.
Hermann Prince Pückler-Muskau (1785-1871) was one of the greatest European garden artists, writers and globetrotters.
For his "masterpiece" he transformed the Branitz "desert" into an oasis and created a total work of art of international rank.
