OverviewDepicting an extraordinary ensemble of architecture and landscape gardening, this guide journeys to the river landscape among the vineyards of Dresden's Elbe valley, illustrating the beauty of Pillnitz palace. The influence of East Asian design on the structure is explored, demonstrating how the construction of the water and mountain palace in the early 18th century laid the foundations for one of Europe's most significant Chinese-style architectural achievements. The impressive, present-day signs of its transformation into the summer residence of the Saxon monarchy are also outlined, providing an extensive guide to both the castle and park. An examination of the locale's eventful history and a study of the entire building in detail are also included.
