Chinesischer Garten

Ever since Ettersburg Castle and its park grounds were built at the beginning of the 18th century, the estate was frequently used by the ducal family of Saxony-Weimar-Eisenach as a hunting manor and favoured summer residence. Anna Amalia regularly invited her close circle of poets and artists to join her there. The spacious landscaped park with its cultivated grounds and so-called “Pückler-Schlag” is a jewel of garden landscaping.
