The Gera Orangery is a late baroque two-wing complex in the former kitchen garden of the younger line of the Princes of Reuss. The orangery and greenhouse were built between 1729 and 1732 and in 1748/49 according to plans by the Princely Saxon State Architect Gottfried Heinrich Krohne. In the course of an eventful history, it served as a hospital and horse stable, gymnasium and bar, and most recently as the home of the Gera Art Association. Since 1972, the Orangery has housed the Gera Art Collection.

The orangery with the kitchen garden, which formerly belonged to the castle, is a beautiful complex.
