The teahouse or 'porcelain house' in the palace park is a gem. Here you can find 18th century Rotterdam faience tiles that have been reused and originally came from the old Schwetzingen orangery.

The General State Archives in Karlsruhe contain a cost statement signed by Elias Monarque for the period from March 23 to August 30, 1723 for the payment of the 30,000 »stones«, freight from Rotterdam to Nijmegen and from there to Düsseldorf, commission, postage and exchange charges with a total of 1299 Rthr. 61 kr. The fact that the construction of the old orangery was not just a winter quarters for plants is proven by the following heading of the statement: »On the 30m of porcelain stoneware ordered from Holland on the special orders of your electorate in order to create a pleasure hall in Schwetzingen«.
