"When Mortaigne redesigned the palace gardens in 1666, he set 64 niches for sandstone busts in the garden wall. It is not clear how many busts Mortaigne had made and how many his successor, Duke Wilhelm Ernst, had made. It is assumed that the majority of the busts are attributable to Wilhelm Ernst, as he was better off financially and was also a collector of such pieces. From 1709 onwards he commissioned the sculptor Hans Caspar Ritze to make more busts. When the French troops marched through Kromsdorf in 1806, they knocked off the noses of all but around 11 busts. The sculptor Dupont began restoring them in 1833 on the orders of Grand Duke Carl Friedrich. The rulers and military leaders are by far the most numerous, with 45 busts. There are only three poets and thinkers, however. It is also striking that only one woman is mentioned by name: Anne Stuart. The other female busts have impersonal names, such as "Woman from the island of Chios" From Wikipedia Some noses are still missing...

In the 🏰 park there is also a small snack bar with delicious 🍦 and ☕️.
