    Very nice little castle 🏰 in the park and with a view of the lake and the Oker.

      Schloss Richmond was built from 1768 to 1789 for the princess and later Duchess Augusta, the wife of Karl Wilhelm Ferdinand, in the south of the city of Brunswick.

      The castle and the park were created in 1768 in the style of a classic English landscape garden.

        In the south of Braunschweig, on Wolfenbütteler Strasse, lies a historical gem: the Richmond palace complex, the former refuge of Duchess Augusta (1737/1780-1813). The attractive group of buildings consisting of a pleasure palace and outbuildings is surrounded by an English landscaped park, which has been largely restored in recent years. The view stretches far across ponds, winding paths and along clumps of trees to a small temple in the distance. A visit is particularly worthwhile in May when the large rhododendrons are in bloom.

        The restored palace now serves representative purposes. It is rented to non-profit and private organizers and also used by the registry office of the city of Braunschweig for weddings.
