What it is
The palace that the architect Erdmannsdorff built for Prince Franz beside the lake, inspired by English country houses and by the Antiquity that both had seen on their travels. It is visited with a guide, in groups of up to 15 people: reception rooms, kitchen, studies and, on another tour, the guest suites on the upper floor.
