Unfortunately, the exhibition on the castle grounds is closed.
Dedicated to a genius who was ahead of his time or was not heard.

Teufelchen New

It is the time of bold visions. After the World War, the population looks optimistically to the sky. Sputniks and rockets fly and the minds of the people on earth are with them. The colonization of the moon and Mars seem to be within reach.

In the psychiatry on the romantic Hubertusburg near Leipzig, too, a man is thinking about it: Karl Hans Janke, a patient with undoubted technical talent, an artist and designer. He does handicrafts and draws, gives lectures and corresponds with companies and public institutions. From 1948 on, over 4,000 works were created in the almost 40 years until his death. For almost twenty years, Janke's models and albums had been stored undetected in a storeroom at the Hubertusburg mental hospital. In 2000 they were rediscovered in an attic of the clinic by the chief physician Peter Grampp.
